prem gave 1/3 of his property for charity of the rest he gave 2/3 to his wife and rest divided equally between his son and daughter find what part of his property was given to son and daughter​

Respuesta :

Given parameters:

Fraction given to charity = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Fraction given to wife = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Unknown:

Fraction given to son and daughter =?

Solution:

Let the total property  = x

    Fraction given to charity  = [tex]\frac{1}{3} x[/tex]

    Fraction given to wife  = [tex]\frac{2}{3} x[/tex]

The remaining was given to son and daughter = F

    So;

     Total property  = fraction given to charity + fraction given to wife + fraction given to son and daughter

         x  = [tex]\frac{1}{3} x + \frac{2}{3} x + F[/tex]

            F = x - ([tex]\frac{1}{3} x + \frac{2}{3} x[/tex])

            F = 0

The son and daughter will not inherit anything
