Mr.joshi gave 1/3 of his money to his son, 1/5 of it to charity and the remaining to his wife who got rs.42,000. what was the total amount ? pls me with this question

Let x represent the total amount, then set up the equation as follows:

Son + Charity + Wife = Total

x + x + 42,000 = x

x + 42,000 = x added like terms

42000 = x subtracted x from both sides

90000 = x multiplied on both sides

$90,000

Can you please make the question more clear, then we'll be able to help you.
