(i)
Each one get atleast Rs. 300
So, the least amount is Rs. 900
Now, the rest 600 Rs. can be distributed in the following ways
600, 0, 0
500, 100, 0
400, 200, 0
400, 100, 100
300, 300, 0
300, 200, 100
200, 200, 200
Total 7 ways
Thus, the total amount Rs. 1500 can be distributed in 7 ways if each one get atleast Rs. 300
 
(ii)
Now, A get at least 500, B and C get at least Rs. 400 each
So, the least amount is 500+400+400=1300
The rest of the amount i.e. Rs. 200 can be distributed amongst A, B and C in the following ways
200, 0, 0
100, 100, 0
So, total 2 ways
Thus, the total amount Rs. 1500 can be distributed in 2 ways if A get at least Rs. 500, B and C get at least 400 each.
