How much will each of them get?​

Answer 1

Given :-

Rs 3500 is to be shared among three people

First person gets 50% of second person

Second person gets 50% of third person

Solution :-

Let the third person be x

Second person gets 50% of third person

Therefore,

50/ 100 * x = x / 2

First person gets 50% of second person

Therefore,

50/100 * x / 2 = x/ 4

Let's add all three shares,

x + x/2 + x/4 = 3500

4x + 2x + x / 4 = 3500

7x = 3500 * 4

x = 3500 * 4 / 7

x = 500 * 4

x = 2000

So, Third person has 2000Rs

Second person = x/ 2 = 2000/ 2 = 1000Rs

First person = x/ 4 = 2000 / 4 = 500Rs

$\bigstar$Given:

• Rs 3500 is to be shared among three people

• First person gets 50% of second person.

• Second persons gets 50% of third person.

$\bigstar$To Find:

• How much Rs will each of them will get?

$\bigstar$Solution:

• Let C's share bex

• Then, B's share = 50 / 100 × x = 1 / 2 x= x / 2

• Then, A's share = 50 / 100 × x / 2 = 25 / 100 x = 1 / 4 x = x / 4

• x + x / 2 + x / 4 = 3500

• (4 x + 2 x + x) / 4 = 3500

• 7x / 4 = 3500

• 7 x = 3500 x 4

• x = 3500 x 4 / 7

• x = 500 x 4

• x = 2000

Amount of C = 2000 Rs

Amount of A = 2000/4 = 500 Rs

Amount of B = 2000/2 = 1000 Rs
