Suresh and Rhea have a total amount of Rs 30,000.

• Let Suresh money=x
• so rhea money=30000-x

If Suresh’s money is doubled and Rhea’s money is tripled, they have a total amount of Rs 83500.

So,

• 2×(suresh's money)+3(rhea money)=83500
• 2(x)+3(30000-x)=83500
• 2x+90000-3x=83500
• -x=83500-90000
• -x=-6500
• x=6500

Therefore,

Suresh's money=x=6500

rhea money =(30000-x)=30000-6500=23500

Verification:

If Suresh’s money is doubled and Rhea’s money is tripled, they have a total amount of Rs 83500.

• 2×(suresh's money)+3(rhea money)=83500
• 2(6500)+3(23500)=83500
• 13000+70500=83500
• 83500=83500

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Suresh and Rhea have a total amount of Rs 30,000.

Let Suresh money=x

so rhea money=30000-x

If Suresh’s money is doubled and Rhea’s money is tripled, they have a total amount of Rs 83500.

So,

2×(suresh's money)+3(rhea money)=83500

2(x)+3(30000-x)=83500

2x+90000-3x=83500

-x=83500-90000

-x=-6500

x=6500

Therefore,

Suresh's money=x=6500

rhea money =(30000-x)=30000-6500=23500
