A prize of Rs. 240 is divided between two persons. If one person receives Rs. 180, then what is the difference between the amount received by the two persons?

Explanation

Person 1 receives: Rs. 180

Person 2 receives: Rs. 240 (total prize) - Rs. 180 (received by Person 1) = Rs. 60

So, the difference between the amounts received by the two persons is:

Rs. 180 (Person 1) - Rs. 60 (Person 2) = Rs. 120

The correct answer is: Rs. 120.
