Then,ashok has 1x/3

Anil has 2x/3=524

Solve 2nd equation

2x/3=524

2x=524×3

X=524×3/2

X=262×3

X=786

Ashok=total-anul

Ahok=786-524

Ashok=262

Answer 2

Answer:

₹262 is the correct answer

Given:

1/3 of a certain amount was given to Ashok and the rest to anil

If anil got rupees 524

To find:

the amount received by Ashok

Solution:

we can if Ashok received 1/3 amount and anil received the rest, therefore, anil received 2/3 of the amount.

let the total amount be Y.

according to the question,

2/3 x Y = 524

Y = 524 x 3 /2

Y = 786

total amount = ₹786.

let the amount received by Ashok be Z.

Z = 1/3 x total amount

Z = 1/3 x 786

Z = ₹262

Hence, ₹262 is the correct answer.
