Explanation
A man divides 8600
- among 5 sons
- 4 daughters
- and 2 nephews
- each daughter receives four times as much as nephew
- each son receives five times as each nephew
Let suppose
Money receive by nephew is “y”, so money received by each daughter and son will be 4y (4 daughter means 16y) and 5y (5 sons means 25y). Now, the overall equation becomes;
2y + 16y + 25y = 8600
Through this equation we can easily find out the amount received by each daughter.
To Find
Money received by each daughter = ?
Solution
Let suppose
Amount received by nephew = y
Two nephews = 2 (y) = 2y
Amount received by 1 daughter = 4y
Amount received by 4 daughters = 4 (4y) = 16y
Amount received by 1 son = 5y
Amount received by 5 sons = 5 (5y) = 25y
Total amount (given) = 8600
So;
2y + 16y + 25y = 8600
43y = 8600
y = 8600/43
y = 200
It means each nephew receives Rs. 200.
Amount received by 1 daughter = 4 (200) = Rs. 800 answer
Conclusion
A man divides 8600 among 5 sons, 4 daughters and 2 nephews. If each daughter receives four times as much as nephew and each son receives five times as each nephew, then each daughter would receive Rs. 800.
