Question
What was the amount that Shyam took initially?___
Answer:
:
Let Vijay's age be x years
Shyam's age = 6 years (given)
Ajay's age = Shyam's age + Vijay's age = (x + 6) years
Ajay's share = x+6x+6+(x+6)×amount=12×1080= Rs 540
When Ajay takes Rs 540, the balance amount left would be Rs 540
Vijay's share = x2(x+6)×540. His actual share = x2(x+6)×1080
The difference between these two amounts is Rs 180 (which he received in the evening from his father)
x2(x+6)×1080x2(x+6)×540=180
x = 12 years
Vijay's actual share = 122×18×1080= Rs. 360
Out of this,
He received Rs 180 later. Hence, he should have taken Rs 180 initially. Balance amount left when shyam came home was = 1080 - (540 + 180)
= Rs. 360
Out of this, the amount Shyam took
=62(x+6)×360
=62×18×360= Rs 60
