Answer 1

Answer:

1,20,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given The govt. announces prizes for the companies who plant

more number of trees in their company compound. If the

prizes is three times the second and the second prizes is

four times the third and the total prize money is Rs. 170000,

find

The amount of first prize

Now let the third place be x

So 2nd place is 4 times more than the third place. So 2nd place will be Rs 4 x

First place is 3 times more than 2 nd place. So 1 st place will be 3 x 4 (x)

Given total prize is 170000

So x + 4 x + 12 x = 1,70,000

      17 x = 170000

        X = Rs 10,000

Now 12 x = 12 x 10,000

                 = 1,20,000

So the first prize will get Rs 1,20,000

The main concept about this problem is one should plant more number of trees and preserve it.
