1.

a boy spends 3/4 of his pocket money and then 4/5 of the remainder is given to his sister. If he has 40 left what did he have at first?​

Answer»

Answer:

800

Step-by-step EXPLANATION:

LET POCKET money be = x

X -3/4x is amount remaining with him after spending money.

X -3/4x= x/4 (on solving)

now he gave 4/5of remaining amount to his SISTER.

= x/4 - 4/5 of x/4

= x/4 - x/5

= x/20

amount remaining with him is =40

x/20=40

x=800

his pocket money is 800
