Question 1037684: Mr khan won a cash prize of certain amount in the jackpot of a carnival. He gave half of his money and an additional money of Rs10000 to his wife. He also gave one- third of the money received and an additional amount of Rs3000 to his son. If his wife got double the amount his son got find the amount of money Mr khan won in the jackpot Answer by jorel555(1290) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let n be the amount of prize money. Then:
1/2(n)+10000=2(1/3(n)+3000)
n/2+10000=2n/3+6000
3n+60000=4n+36000
n=60000-36000=Rs 24000 as the total cash prize!!!!!!!!!!
