The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, let's denote the initial amount of money Ravi had as \( x \). ### Step 1: Calculate the amount given to Rupa Ravi gives 50% of his money to Rupa. Therefore, the amount given to Rupa is: \[ \text{Amount given to Rupa} = 50\% \text{ of } x = \frac{50}{100} \times x = 0.5x \] ### Step 2: Calculate the remaining amount after giving to Rupa After giving 50% to Rupa, the remaining amount is: \[ \text{Remaining amount after Rupa} = x - 0.5x = 0.5x \] ### Step 3: Calculate the amount given to Raje Next, Ravi gives 30% of his initial amount \( x \) to Raje. Therefore, the amount given to Raje is: \[ \text{Amount given to Raje} = 30\% \text{ of } x = \frac{30}{100} \times x = 0.3x \] ### Step 4: Calculate the remaining amount after giving to Raje After giving 30% to Raje, the remaining amount is: \[ \text{Remaining amount after Raje} = 0.5x - 0.3x = 0.2x \] ### Step 5: Calculate the amount donated to charity Ravi donates 60% of the remaining amount to charity. Therefore, the amount donated to charity is: \[ \text{Amount donated to charity} = 60\% \text{ of } 0.2x = \frac{60}{100} \times 0.2x = 0.12x \] ### Step 6: Calculate the remaining amount after donation After donating to charity, the remaining amount is: \[ \text{Remaining amount after donation} = 0.2x - 0.12x = 0.08x \] ### Step 7: Set up the equation with the remaining amount According to the problem, Ravi is left with Rs. 8040. Therefore, we can set up the equation: \[ 0.08x = 8040 \] ### Step 8: Solve for \( x \) To find the initial amount \( x \), we can solve the equation: \[ x = \frac{8040}{0.08} \] Calculating this gives: \[ x = 100500 \] ### Final Answer The money Ravi initially had was Rs. 100500. ---
