Solution:

(4) Let the share of Dheeraj be x.
Then share of Bhanu

= 2.5x

Share of Chandu

= 4 × 2.5x = 10x

Then, according to question,
(Share of Atul

+ 2.5x) = 3(10x + x)

⇒Share of Atul

= 33x – 2.5x= 30.5x

Now,

30.5x + 2.5x + 10x + x⇒ 2200

⇒ 44x = 2200

⇒ x = 50

⇒ Chandu's share

= 10 × 50= ₹500
