Answer 1

Answer:

Option 4) Rs.2000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let total money be Rs.x . Anmol took 20% i.e. Rs.x/5, so Rs.4x/5 remains.

Golu took 50% of Rs.4x/5 i.e. 2x/5, so Rs.2x/5 remains.

Yash took Rs.2x/5-1200, so Rs.1200 remains which Shivam gets.

Anmol got x/5=(2x/5-1200)-400 i.e. 400 less than Yash. Solving for x;

x/5=1600 so x=Rs.8000

Golu took 2x/5 i.e. 2*8000/5=Rs.3200

Golu - Shivam = 3200-1200 = Rs.2000
