Answer must be true.​

Answer 1

Answer with explanation

let money with Raunak be "x"

(he gave his sister 1000 ₹more than 2/3rd of money)

so Acc. to question

2x +1000= 2500₹(as mentioned in the question)

3

now let's solve this equation

*first take lcm

2x+3000 =2500

3

*now we will do cross multiply

2x+3000=2500×3

2x+3000=7500

2x=7500-3000

2x= 4500

x=4500

2

x= 2250

therefore raunak had 2250₹ with him
