Question

Divide 3 rupees and 39 paisa among
two men so that one gets 59 paisa

with explanation.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Assuming the person getting the lesser amount is getting Rs. x

x + (x+5) = 100

2x = 95

x = 47.5

so, person-1 gets Rs. 47.5 and

person-2 gets Rs. 52.5 (which is Rs. 5 more than what person-1 got)
