Answer 2

Answer:

Amount won : $3,000,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount won be =100 x

Amount spent on house :

                                     $\frac{4}{5} \ of \ 100 x = 80 x$

Remaining amount = 100x - 80x = 20x

Amount spent on yacht :

                                    $\frac{3}{4} \ of \ 20x = 15x$

Remaining amount = 20x - 15x = 5x

Amount spent on a trip :

                                   $\frac{2}{3} \ of \ 5x = \frac{10}{3}x$

Remaining amount =

                         $5x - \frac{10}{3}x = \frac{15x -10x}{3} = \frac{5x}{3}$

This amount is given for charity :

                                                     $\frac{5}{3}x$

But given :

           Amount given to charity is  50000

Therefore ,

                 $\frac{5}{3}x = 50000$

                $5x = 3 \times 50000\\\\5x = 150000\\\\x = 30000$

Therefore , the amount won on lottery is = 100x = 100 ( 30000) = 3,000,000
