Question

i spent 1/4 of the total amount available with food grains and half of the rest in clothes.iam left now with only rs300.what was the total amount available with me initially?​

Answer 1

money left after buying grains = 1-1/4

= 3/4

Money left after buying clothes = 3/4 - 1/2

= 1/4

money left in rupees = 1/4 = 300

= 300 × 4 = 1200

Answer 2

Answer:

let the total amount is Rs x

for food grains I spent Rs x/4

rest of the money is Rs (x-x/4)=Rs 3x/4

due to clothes I spent Rs 3x/4.1/2=Rs 3x/8

left =Rs {x-(x/4+3x/8)}

=Rs {x-5x/8}

=Rs 3x/8

so,

3x/8=300

=> 3x=300*8

=> x=300*8/3

=> x=800

The total amount available with me initially is Rs 800
