ملی A man left one-fifth of his property to his
Son , one third to his daughter
and remaining
to his wife. If his wife got 35ooo RS what was the
worth of his total property?

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
