A person donate 2/5 of his money to an orphanage 1/3 to old age home and rest in school . If school share was 16000 find the money he donated.

Answer 1

Answer:

total money is 60000

Step-by-step explanation:

let the donated money be x

then ,

orphanage money is 2/5 of x

old age home mone is 1/3 of x

school money part is 1 - ( 2/5 + 1/3)

= 1 - 11/15

= 4/15 of x

according to question school part equal to 16000 then

4/15 of x = 16000

x = 60000 Rs.
