Question

If 4/5 of a plot is worth Rs120000.Find the worth of a whole plot

Answer 1

Answer:

Given that 4/5 of a plot= Rs 120000

let the worth of whole plot= x

4/5 of x is Rs 120000

therefore we've to make an equation that is

$\frac{4}{5} \times x = 120000 \\ \frac{4x}{5} = 120000 \\ 4x = 120000 \times 5 \\ 4x = 600000 \\ x = \frac{600000}{4} \\ x = 150000$

therefore the worth of the whole plot is

Rs 150000

checking whether it's correct or not

$\frac{4}{5} \times 150000 = 120000 \\ \frac{600000}{5} = 120000 \\ 120000 = 120000$

L.H.S=R.H.S

hence verified

hope it helps
