Answer 1

267.77 is answer ......

Answer 2

The sum of original money is Rs.375.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Amount that Ram gets = Rs. 35

Amount that Rakesh gets = Rs. 125

Part of amount that Ramesh gets = $\dfrac{3}{5}$

So, Part of amount that Ram and Rakesh gets = $1-\dfrac{3}{5}=\dfrac{5-3}{5}=\dfrac{2}{5}$

Let x be the sum of original money.

According to question, we get that

$\dfrac{2}{5}x=25+125\\\\\dfrac{2}{5}x=150\\\\x=\dfrac{150\times 5}{2}\\\\x=75\times 5\\\\x=Rs.\ 375$

Hence, the sum of original money is Rs.375.
