Answers
Here we have seen that one part is half and other are 1/4(2times)...
So, for a whole we need more1/4 i.e is given as 1200....
1/4x=1200
x=1200×4=4800
Hence, Value of x is 4800 ruppes...

Concept-
Form the equation as , total money (x) = given to wife + given to son + given to daughter , then find the value of x by solving this.
Given-
A man has total rupees x. He gave 1/2 it to its wife, 1/4 to his son and rupees 1200 to his daughter.
Find-
Form the equation and also find the value of x.
Solution-
Let the total money be x
It is given that ,
He gave half to his wife = 1/2 x
He gave half to his son = 1/4 x
He gave to his daughter = Rs. 1200
⇒ x = 1/2 x + 1/4 x + 1200
⇒ x = [ ( 4x + 2x ) / 8 ] + 1200
⇒ x = ( 6x / 4 ) + 1200
⇒ x = ( 3x + 4800 ) / 4
⇒ 4x = 3x + 4800
⇒ 4x - 3x = 4800
⇒ x = 4800
Therefore, value of x is Rs. 4800.
