    Explanation

    Ratio of shares of A,B,C = (24 x 4) : (10 x 6) : (56 x 5) = 96 : 60 : 280. Let total rent be Rs. x. Then, A's share = Rs.96x436Rs.\frac{96x}{436} ∴96x436=960  ⇔x=960×43696=4360\therefore\frac{96x}{436}=960\;\Leftrightarrow x=\frac{960\times436}{96}=4360 Hence total rent of the field is Rs. 4360.
