Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Let , He carry total money from home = x


Amount he have after his 1st sister added same amount as he have = x + x = 2 x


Now he gave 2000 to his 1st sister so amount left with him = 2 x - 2000


And


Amount he have after his 2nd sister added same amount as he have = 2 x - 2000 + 2 x - 2000 = 4 x - 4000


Now he gave 2000 to his 2nd sister so amount left with him = 4 x - 4000 - 2000 = 4 x - 6000


And


Amount he have after his 3rd sister added same amount as he have = 4 x - 6000 + 4 x - 6000 = 8 x - 12000


Now he gave 2000 to his 3rd sister so amount left with him = 8 x - 12000 - 2000 = 8 x - 14000


Also given : In the end he have Rs 5000 , So


8 x - 14000 = 5000


8 x = 19000


x = 2375


Therefore,


He carry total money from home = Rs . 2375 ( Ans )
