Step-by-step explanation:
Let the total money with Mr. Gupta be
Money given to son
Money left
Money given to daughter
Money given to mother
According to the question,
Step-by-step explanation:
let total money be = x
so his son got = 5x/14
now remaining = x-5x/14 = 9x/14
and daughter = 2/3 × 9x/14 = 3x/7
and wife got = 36000 rs
so we come to conclusion that
son + daughter +wife = x
5x/14 + 3x/7 + 36000 = x
11x/14 +36000 = x
36000 = x- 11x/14
36000 = 3x/14
x = 36000×14/3
= 168000 rs answer
