Question 981214
.
Assuming there is a fourth share in same pattern:
F=first share; F/2=second; F/3=third; F/4=fourth; F/5=fifth
.
{{{F+(F/2)+(F/3)+(F/4)+(F/5)=Rs372}}}
{{{(60F/60)+(30F/60)+(20F/60)+(15F/60)+(12F/60)=Rs372}}}
{{{(137/60)F=Rs372}}} Multiply each side by (60/137)
{{{F=Rs162.92}}}
ANSWER: The first share is Rs162.92 (if there is a fourth share)
.
Without the fourth share:
{{{(122/60)F=Rs372}}} Multiply each side by 60/122
{{{F=Rs182.95}}}
