Answer:
Let the total income of the person be x.
Then,
=> Money given to his wife = 2/5 of x
= 2x/5
=> Money given to his son = 1/5 of x
= x/5
Now,
According to the question;
Money left with the person is Rs.4000.
Thus, we have;
=> x - ( 2x/5 + x/5) = 4000
=> x - 2x/5 - x/5 = 4000
=> (5x - 2x - x)/5 = 4000
=> 2x/5 = 4000
=> x = 4000•(5/2)
=> x = 10000.
Thus, the total income of the person is;
Rs. 10000.
Moreover,
Money given to the wife = 2x/5
= Rs. 4000
Money given to the son = x/5
= Rs. 2000
