Answer 1

Hi there ...!

Let the payment from each be Rs x .

At first , nine persons pay = x + x + x + x + x +x +x +x + x = Rs 9x (amount paid by 9)

Now, no of persons = 9 - 3 = 6

Money paid by each = Rs x + 4

So , we can say that ,

⇒(x+4) + (x+4) + (x+4) + (x+4) + (x+4) + (x+4) = 9x

⇒6x + 24 = 9x

⇒24 = 9x - 6x

⇒24 = 3x

⇒24/3 = x = Rs 8

thus amount of the find = 8 *9 = Rs 72 (ans)
