Question

Mr. Deshmukh left ₹24 50 000 for his son & daughter in his will. He wanted his daughter to receive 2/3 of the amount his son received.Find the sun of money that the son received.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take the money with the son as x.

Money with daughter = x × 2/3

If we consider that as a ratio, it will be

1 : 2/3

= 3/3 : 2/3.

Total number of equal parts to be made is 5 (sum of numerators). 2 of the parts will be given to the daughter.

2450000/5 = 490000

Amount daughter gets = 490000 × 2 = 980000

Amount son gets = 490000 × 3 = 1470000

To prove:

The sum of both of their amounts should be equal to 2450000.

1470000 + 980000 = 2450000.
