heya friend
here is the solution of this question

let madhu have to give money to the total no. of peoples = x
let madhu have total money = RS. y
so according to question
two linear equations forms these are :-
→21 x - 4 = y.
→20x + 1 = y.
setting equations we get.
→ 21x -y = 4. ...........(1)
→ 20x-y = -1. ...........(2)
= subtracting 2nd eqn from 1st, we get :-
→ x = 5
putting value of x in eqn 1st we get
→ y = 21*5 -4= 101
so total no. of persons = 5
total money = rs. 101
HOPE IT WILL HELP
