step by step explanation


answer must come 90000​

Answer 1

The total amount is Rs.90,000/-

To find:

Total amount = ?

Solution:

Let us assume that total amount of money with Mr Joshi was x.

Mr Joshi bequeathed \frac{1}{3} of his money to his son. This can be written as

Money with son =\frac{x}{3}

Mr Joshi bequeathed \frac{1}{5} of his money to his daughter. This can be written as

Money with daughter =\frac{x}{5}

Hence, the share of wife will be =x-\frac{x}{3}-\frac{x}{5} who got Rs.42000/-.

Thus,

x-\left(\frac{x}{3}+\frac{x}{5}\right)=42000

x-\frac{5 x-3 x}{15}=42000

\frac{15 x-8 x}{15}=42000

7 x=42000 \times 15

7 \mathrm{x}=630000

\mathrm{x}=90000

Hence, the total amount with Mr Joshi was Rs.90,000/-.
