Answer:
Rs 75,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the total value of property be x
If one-fifth of that is given to son
property with son = 1/5 of total value of property = 1/5 of x = x/5
If one-third of that is given to daughter
property with daughter = 1/3 of total value of property = 1/3 of x = x/3
remaining property after giving the portions to son and daughter
= total value of property - property with son -property with daughter
= x - x/5 - x/3
taking LCM of 5 and 3 (15)
= (15x - 3x - 5x)/15
= 7x/15
Given that remaining property was given to wife
property with wife = 7x/15
it is given that wife got 35000 Rs
thus,
7x/15 = 35,000
7x = 35,000*15 = 525,000
x = 525,000/7 = 75,000
Thus, total worth of property =Rs 75,000 Answer
Answer:
2 should be distributed as 2y + 8; y = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
2(y + 4) = 4y
Distribute
2y + 8 = 4y
Step 2 is incorrect because the added instead of multiplied
Continuing on to correct the problem
Subtract 2y from each side
2y+8-2y = 4y-2y
8 = 2y
Divide by 2
8/2 = 2y/2
4 =y
