Hey buddy,
● Answer - Rs.305
● Explaination -
Let the earnings be a, b, c, d, e.
From given conditions,
b = 0.8 a = 4/5 a
c = 1.25 a = 5/4 a
d = 0.83 a = 5/6 a
e = 1.2 a = 6/5 a
Taking LCM a = 60.
Now,
a = 60
b = 48
c = 75
d = 50
e = 72
Adding a + b + c + d + e = 60 + 48 + 75 + 50 + 72 = 305.
Total amount earned by all 5 is 305 Rs.
Hope this is helpful...
