Question

a man decide donate rupees 1,50,000 from his three sons to the prime minister relief fund the elder son contributed 3 by 8 of his youngest brother share find the contribution of all​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let contribution of 3rd brother = x

Therefore, contribution of 1st brother = 3x/8

And contribution of 2nd brother =1x/2

ATQ :

x + 3x/8 + 1x/2 = 60000

(8x + 3x + 4x)/8 = 60000

15x = 60000 × 8

15x = 480000

x = 480000/15

= 32000

So, contribution of 3rd brother = x

= 32000

Contribution of 1st brother =

(3 × 32000)/8 = 12000

Contribution of 2nd brother =

(1 × 32000)/2 = 16000
