Question

Mohan Lal left half of his property to his daughter , one - fourth to his son and the remainder to his wife. If the wife's share was worth Rs 40,000, how much money did Mohan Lal have ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Mohan Lal's total property was of 1,60,000 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let total property be x

property for daughter = x/2

property for son = x/4

Property for wife = 40,000

x/2 + x/4 + 40,000 = x

( 2x + x + 1,60,000) = 4x

3x + 1,60,000 = 4x

x = 1,60,000
