A man gave one-third of his money to his son$,$ one-fifth to his daughter and the remaining amount to his wife$.$ if his son gets Rs$.$$91,000$ $,$ how much money will his wife get $?$

Answer 1

Step 1 : Write the given data

Money given to his son $=$ $\frac{1}{3}$of total money $=$ Rs$.$$91,000$

Money given to his daughter $=$$\frac{1}{5}$of total money

Step 2 : Find the total money

Money given to his son $=$ $\frac{1}{3}$of total money $=$Rs$.$$91,000$

Total money $=$$3$$\times$$91000$ $=$$2,73,000$

Step 3 : Find the money given to his daughter

Money given to his daughter $=$$\frac{1}{5}$of total money $=$$\frac{1}{5}$$\times$$2,73,000$ $=$ $\frac{1\times 2,73,000}{5}$$=$$\frac{2,73,000}{5}$ $=$Rs$.$$54,600$

Step 4 : Find the money given to his wife

Money given to his Wife $=$Total money $-$$($Money given to his son $+$Money given to his daughter $)$

$=$$2,73,000$$-$$($$91,000$$+$$54,600$$)$

$=$$1,27,400$

Hence$,$ His wife will get Rs.$1,27,400$ .
