Answer
View full question & answer→The total wealth of $₹1,12,00,000$ was to be divided equally among 7 grandchildren of Ram Niwas out of which 3 parts would be given to the girls (as there were 3 girls out of 7 grandchildren).
1. (c): The fraction of the money received by the girls $=\frac{3}{7}$.
2. (b): Share of each child $=₹\left(\frac{1}{7} \times 1,12,00,000\right)=₹16,00,000$.
3. (b): Out of 7 equal parts, 4 parts of the wealth was to be given to the boys.
$\therefore$ fraction of the money received by the boys $=\frac{4}{7}$.
And so, the money received by the boys
$=₹(\frac{4}{7} \times 1,12,00,000)$
$=₹(4 \times 16,00,000)=₹64,00,000$
4. (d): If one of the girls did not take her share, then the money would be distributed equally among the remaining 6 grandchildren out of which 4 parts would be given to the boys.
So, the fraction of the money that the boys will receive then is $\frac{4}{6}=\frac{2}{3}$.
1. (c): The fraction of the money received by the girls $=\frac{3}{7}$.
2. (b): Share of each child $=₹\left(\frac{1}{7} \times 1,12,00,000\right)=₹16,00,000$.
3. (b): Out of 7 equal parts, 4 parts of the wealth was to be given to the boys.
$\therefore$ fraction of the money received by the boys $=\frac{4}{7}$.
And so, the money received by the boys
$=₹(\frac{4}{7} \times 1,12,00,000)$
$=₹(4 \times 16,00,000)=₹64,00,000$
4. (d): If one of the girls did not take her share, then the money would be distributed equally among the remaining 6 grandchildren out of which 4 parts would be given to the boys.
So, the fraction of the money that the boys will receive then is $\frac{4}{6}=\frac{2}{3}$.
