3. Mohan gave [tex]\(\frac{2}{5}\)[/tex] of his income to his wife, [tex]\(\frac{1}{3}\)[/tex] to his son, and [tex]\(\frac{1}{4}\)[/tex] to his daughter. If his daughter received Rs. 15,000, then find:

1. How much money did Mohan have?
2. The amount received by his wife.
3. The amount received by his son.



Answer :

Let's solve the problem step-by-step to find Mohan's total income and the amounts received by his wife and son.

### Step 1: Determine Mohan's total income

From the problem, we know that Mohan's daughter received [tex]\(\frac{1}{4}\)[/tex] (one quarter) of his total income and this amount is Rs. 15,000.

Let's denote Mohan's total income by [tex]\(I\)[/tex].

The amount given to his daughter is:
[tex]\[ \frac{1}{4} I = 15,000 \][/tex]

To find [tex]\(I\)[/tex], we can solve for it:
[tex]\[ I = 15,000 \times 4 \][/tex]

Calculating the value:
[tex]\[ I = 60,000 \][/tex]

So, Mohan's total income is Rs. 60,000.

### Step 2: Calculate the amount received by the wife

Mohan gave [tex]\(\frac{2}{5}\)[/tex] of his income to his wife. Using the total income [tex]\(I = 60,000\)[/tex]:

The amount given to his wife is:
[tex]\[ \frac{2}{5} I = \frac{2}{5} \times 60,000 \][/tex]

Calculating the value:
[tex]\[ \frac{2}{5} \times 60,000 = 24,000 \][/tex]

So, Mohan's wife received Rs. 24,000.

### Step 3: Calculate the amount received by the son

Mohan gave [tex]\(\frac{1}{3}\)[/tex] of his income to his son. Using the total income [tex]\(I = 60,000\)[/tex]:

The amount given to his son is:
[tex]\[ \frac{1}{3} I = \frac{1}{3} \times 60,000 \][/tex]

Calculating the value:
[tex]\[ \frac{1}{3} \times 60,000 = 20,000 \][/tex]

So, Mohan's son received Rs. 20,000.

### Summary

- Mohan's total income: Rs. 60,000
- Amount received by his wife: Rs. 24,000
- Amount received by his son: Rs. 20,000
