. if her wife gets 35000 what was total amount the man had?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The man had a total amount of 75000 rupees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total amount the man had be x rupees.

According to the question,

He gave x/3 to his son

x/5 to his daughter

and 35000 rupees to his wife

Sum of these amounts will give the total amount

This implies,

(x/3)+ (x/5)+ 35000= x

x - (x/3) - (x/5) =35000

(15x - 5x - 3x)/15 =35000

7x = 35000×15

x = 525000÷7

x = 75000

Therefore, the man had a total amount of 75000 rupees.

Answer 2

Answer:

Rs75,000

Step-by-step explanation:

let the total amount be X

so,

X/3 + X/5 + 35,000= X

5X + 3X + 525000 / 15 =X

8X + 525000= 15X

7X = 525000

X= Rs75,000.
