Question

a man left one fourth of his money to his wife,two by fifth to his son and donated balance amount of rupees 210000 to a fund.how much money did he have,how much money was received by his son and wife separately​

Answer 1

Answer:

Rs. 1,50,000 - wife

Rs. 2,40,000 - son

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total money be x.

Money given to wife = x/4

Money given to son = 2x/5

Money given to wife and son =

(2x/5) + (x/4)

= (2x*4/5*4)+(x*5/4*5)

= (8x/20)+(5x+20)

= 13x/20

Therefore money left= 20/20(x)-13x/20=7x/20

7x/20=210000

x = 210000 * 20/7

x = 600000

Therefore total wealth of man = Rs. 6,00,000

Money received by wife = 600000/4=150000

Money received by son = 2 *600000/5=240000
