Answer 1

Answer:

x because he didn't mention how much is his half amount

Answer 2

The bonus of the first month he got is $450 when he purchased a ring for his wife with the $\frac{1}{10}$ of the bonus.

Given that,

Mr. Wong received his bonus for the first month. Half of the money was put into the bank by him. He purchased a ring for his wife with the $\frac{1}{10}$ of the bonus before buying his pals eight mangoes at a cost of ten dollars apiece. He eventually had $100 in his wallet.

We have to find what was the first-month bonus for Mr. Wong.

We know that,

Let us take the bonus as x.

x = 100 + 8×10 +  $\frac{x}{10}$ + $\frac{x}{2}$

x = 100 + 80 + $\frac{6x}{10}$

x = 180 + $\frac{3x}{5}$

x = $\frac{900+3x}{5}$

5x = 900 + 3x

5x - 3x = 900

2x = 900

x = $450

Therefore, The bonus of the first month he got is $450
