Q:

A man who recently died left a sum of Rs. 3,90,000 to be divided among his wife, five sons and four daughters. He directed that each son should receive 3 times as much as each daughter receives and that each daughter receives and that each daughter should receive twice as much as their mother receives. What was the wife’s share?

A) Rs. 14,000 B) Rs. 12,000
C) Rs. 10,000 D) Rs. 9,000
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Rs. 10,000

Explanation:
Let his wife get a share of Rs x
Each of the 4 daughters get = Rs 2x
Each of the 5 sons get = Rs 6x
So x + 4*2x + 5*6x = 390000
So 39x = 390000
X=10000 = wife’s share
