Question

I have some rupees . One fourth of the rupees I gave to Chitra and half of it to sukamla. I have 20 rupees left. How much money I had in beginning?
3 points
100 rupees
60 rupees
50 rupees
80 rupees​

Answer 1

Answer:

80 rupees

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the money that I have be x rupees.

So the money that I gave to Chitra will be x/4,

and the money that I gave to sukamla will be x/2.

According to question,

x-(x/4+x/2) =20

x-(x+2x /4) =20

x-3x/4 =20

4x-3x /4 =20

x/4 =20

x =80

Hence I had 80 rupees in beginning.
