2149680

Step-by-step explanation:

15x/39-29x/39=12720

9x/39=12720

x=55120

55120*39=214,9680

Answer 2

The total amount of money is Rs. 55120.26.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Ratio of sum of money = 5:8:11:15

Share of D is less than the total share of the other three by Rs. 12720

According to question, it becomes,

$(5x+8x+11x)-15x=12720\\\\24x-15x=12720\\\\9x=12720\\\\x=\dfrac{12720}{9}\\\\x=1413.34$

So, the total amount would be

$(5+8+11+15)x=39\times 1413.34=55120.26$

Hence, the total amount of money is Rs. 55120.26.
