Question 56
A man divides a certain sum among his wife, his son and his daughter. His wife gets 45% of the sum, his son gets 30% of the sum, and his daughter gets the remaining ₹6,25,000. What amount did the wife get?
Solution
His wife gets 45% of the sum, his son gets 30% of the sum, and his daughter gets the remaining ₹6,25,000.
Amount got by his daughter = (100-45-30)% = ₹6,25,000
(100-75)% = ₹6,25,000
25% = ₹6,25,000
1% = 25000
Amount got by his wife = 45% = $$45\times25000$$
= ₹1125000
