Question

A man decided to donate Rs. 60000 collected from his three sons to prime minister relief fund. The elder son contributed 3/8 of his youngest brother's contribution while the second son contributed 1/2 of his youngest brother's share. Find the contribution of all.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the contribution of third brother be x

Therefore, Contribution of first brother =3x/8

Contribution of second brother = 1x/2

Step-by-step explanation:

ATQ :

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

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

=15x=60000*8

=15x = 480000

=x=480000/15

=x=32000

Contribution of 3rd brother = x

=32000

Contribution of first brother = 3*32000/8

= 12000

Contribution of second brother = 1*32000/2

=16000
