        Calculations in the post by @mananth are not precisely correct.

        I came to bring a correct solution.



<pre>
From the problem,  {{{B/C}}} = {{{1/0.55}}}  and  C = 66.

Hence,  B = {{{66/0.55}}} = 120.



Next, from the problem  {{{A/B}}} = {{{1/0.6}}}.

Hence,  A = {{{120/0.6}}} = 200.


<U>ANSWER</U>.  The share of A is  200 rupees.
</pre>

Solved correctly.


Due to its nature, this problem assumes PRECISE calculations - not approximate.
