Question

Shanti lal left one -fifth of his property for his sons one fifth for his daughter and the remainder for his wife . If wife's share in the property was worth 288000 find the total worth of shanti lal property

Answer 1

son has 1/5th of the property
daughter has 1/5th of the property
means wife has 3/5th of the property which is worth 288000
let the total cost of property be C
(3/5)×100=60%
(1/5)×100=20%
(288000/C)×100=60%
C=(100×288000)/6
C=4800000
