If a certain amount of money is divided equally among n persons, each one receives Rs 352. However, if two persons receive Rs 506 each and the remaining amount is divided equally among the other persons, each of them receive less than or equal to Rs 330. Then, the maximum possible value of n is

It is given that if a certain amount of money is divided equally among n persons, each one receives Rs 352. Hence, the total amount of money is (352*n) = 352n ... Eq(1)

It is also known that if two persons receive Rs 506 each and the remaining amount is divided equally among the other persons, each of them receives less than or equal to Rs 330

Hence, the maximum amount of money with them = 506*2 + (n-2)*330 = 1012+330n-660 = 352+330n

Now, $$352+330n\ \ge\ 352n\ $$

=> $$22n\ \le\ 352$$ 

=> $$n\ \le\ 16$$

Hence, the maximum value is 16
