The value of the second prize is five-sixth of the value
of the first prize and the value of the third prize is

Answer:

first will recieve 105

2 nd will recieve 720 and 3rd is 325

Answer 2

Answer:

let value first prize be x

second prize value = 5/6×x

third prize value = 4/5(5x/6)

= 20x/30

= 2x/3

total value =x+ 5x/6+2x/3

1500= 6x+5x+2x/6

1500 = 13x/6

1500×6/13 = x

x=692
