Correct answer is B
let x represent the total number of oranges shared, let the three boys be A, B and C respectively. A received \(\frac{1}{3}\) of x, Remainder = \(\frac{2}{3}\) of x . B received \(\frac{2}{3}\) of remainder (i.e.) \(\frac{2}{3}\) of x
∴ C received \(\frac{2}{3}\) of remainder (\(\frac{2}{3}\) of x) = 12
\(\frac{1}{3}\) x \(\frac{2x}{3}\) = 12
2x = 108
x = 54
