प्रश्न
Rs. 13500 are to be distributed among Salma, Kiran and Jenifer in such a way that Salma gets Rs. 1000 more than Kiran and Jenifer gets Rs. 500 more than Kiran. Find the money received by Jenifer.
उत्तर
Let the money received by Kiran be ₹ x.
Then, the money received by Salma = ₹ (x + 1000)
And the money received by Jenifer = ₹ (x + 500)
According to the question,
x + x + 1000 + x + 500 = 13500
⇒ 3x + 1500 = 13500
⇒ 3x = 13500 – 1500
⇒ 3x = 12000
⇒ x = `12000/3`
∴ x = 4000
Hence, the money received by Jenifer = ₹ 4000 + 500 = ₹ 4500
