Question

Mr. Raj gave 5/14 of his money to his son, 2/3 of the remaining to his daughter and the rest to his wife. If his wife got Rs. 36000, what was the total amount?

Answer 1

Answer:

168000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let total amount be x

Son = 5x/14

remaining amount after giving son = x - 5x/14 = 9x/14

daughter = 2/3 × 9x/14 = 9x/21

remaining amount after giving daughter = 9x/14 - 9x/21 = 9x/42

mother = 9x/42 = 36000

9x = 36000×42

x = 36000×42/9

x = 4000×42

x = 168000

Total amount = rupees 168000

Answer 2

Answer:

Rs. 168000

Step-by-step explanation:

Fraction of amount given to son=5/14

So, remaining fraction of amount= -5/14 = 9/14

From tee remaining amount ,fraction given to daughter=2/3(9/14)

So, amount of fraction received by his wife=9/14-2/3(9/14)

=(9/14)(1-2/3)

=(9/14)(1/3)

=(3/14)

Now amount recieved by wife= 36000

therefore, (3/14) = 36000 =>= (36000 × 14)/3 = 12000×14 = 1,68,000

Hence, the total amount of Mr. Raj is 1,68,000.
