Answer:
he gave Rs. 24750 means 1/3 approx to his wife.
Step-by-step explanation:
money as income tax = 1/10 of 75000
= Rs. 7500
then remaining money = 75000-7500=Rs.67500
1. 1/3 of 67500 = Rs.22500
2. 1/5 of 67500 = Rs.13500
3. 1/10 of 67500 = Rs.6750
Add these
= 22500+13500+6750 = Rs.42750
Now subtract it from 67500
67500-42750 = Rs.24750
which is 1/3 approx.
