Richa's salary=x(I consider it as x)
Ritcha spent in installment=1/2x
Ritcha spent on conveyence=1/3x
reaming money given by Richa as donation is =500
then 100%her salary = 1/2x + 1/3x +500
=(1/2 +1/3) x+500=x
=(5/6)x+500=x
then,500=(1/6)x
500x6=x
therefore x=Rs.3000
1/2 of her salary=3000/2 =Rs.1500
1/3 of her salary =3000/3=Rs.1000
Ritcha spent in installment=1/2x
Ritcha spent on conveyence=1/3x
reaming money given by Richa as donation is =500
then 100%her salary = 1/2x + 1/3x +500
=(1/2 +1/3) x+500=x
=(5/6)x+500=x
then,500=(1/6)x
500x6=x
therefore x=Rs.3000
1/2 of her salary=3000/2 =Rs.1500
1/3 of her salary =3000/3=Rs.1000
