Answer 2

Given - Property worth

Find - Amount of property received

Solution - The first, second and third brothers received Rupees 60000, 80000 and 140000 respectively.

Let the shared amount be 3x, 4x and 7x. Now, as per the question, the equation will be -

3x + 4x + 7x = 280000

14x = 280000

x = 280000/14

x = Rupees 20000

The share of each brother will be -

The first brother = 3x

First brother = 3*20000

First brother = 60000

The second brother = 4x

Second brother = 4*20000

Second brother = 80000

The third brother = 7x

Third brother = 7*20000

Third brother = 140000

Thus, the first, second and third brother received Rupees 60000, 80000 and 140000 respectively.
