An amount of money is to be distributed among A, B and C in the ratio of 6:19:7 respectively.

Let amounts are 6x, 19 x and 7x respectively.

As per given condition

6x:19x+200: 7x-200 :: 3:10:3

it means

6x= 7x-200
x=200

Then amounts are 1200,3800,1400,
Total amount = 1200+3800+1400= Rs. 6400
Also total amt = 200*(6+19+7)=200*32= Rs 6400

A:B:C 6:19:7
x is the total amt.
A=6/32x,B=19/32x,c=7/32x

the diffrence in ratio, by C gives 200 of his share to B 7 to 3 out of total total 16
ie, 7/32x-3/16x=200
1/32x=200
ie, x=6400
