Question

36. A father divides his property such that the eldest son
gets double the second and thrice the third. If his
eldest son gets 12,000 more than the youngest.
The share of the second son is
rupees.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let's consider youngest son share= x

according to question, eldest get =3x

second son share= 3x/2

equation formed

x+ 12000 = 3x

12000=3x -x

2x= 12000

x= RS 6000

so 3x= 6000×3= 18000

second son share= 18000/2

so RS 9000
