Answer 2

Concept:

Word problems can be converted into equations, which are the formula that expresses the equality of two expressions.

Given:

A man gave his 1/3 property to his son, Rs 2000 to his daughter, and Rs 8000 to his wife.

Find:

The property his son gets.

Solution:

Let, the total property of the man is x.

The sum of the property given is equal to the total property given.

x = (x/3) + 2000 + 8000

Solving the equation,

x - (x/3) = 2000 + 8000

2x/3 = 10000

x = 30000/2 = Rs 15000

The total property of the man is Rs 15000.

So, his son gets 15000/3 = Rs 5000

Hence, his son gets Rs 5000.
