Thus he had 93.75 Rs when he started from his house.
Explanation:
- Let’s assume he has = x Rs
- Money left after 1st temple visit = (2 x - 100) Rs
- Money left after 2nd temple visit = (4 x - 300) Rs
- Money left after 3rd temple visit = (8 x-700) Rs
- After 4th temple visit, he is left with = (16 x - 1500) Rs
- Which is zero (as he is left with empty pockets)
- Now the actual money he started with
- Actual money = 1500/16 = 93.75 Rs
Thus he had 93.75 Rs when he started from his house.
