Question

A man gave 1/4 of his property to his daughter, 1/2 of that to his sons and donated 1/5 of the whole property. What part of his property did he give?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4 of his property

1/2 to his sons

1/5 of whole property

Take LCM of 1/4, 1/2 & 1/5

Lcm is 20

His total property is 20 parts

1/4 of his property = 20*1/4 = 5

1/2 to his sons =20*1/2= 10

1/5 of whole property = 20*1/5= 4

Part of his property given = 5+10+4= 19/20
