suppose each part was x and then apply changes
1st: x-4
2nd: x+5
3rd: x/2
4th: 3x
x-4 + x+5 + x/2 + 3x = 155
5.5x = 154
x = 28
the four parts are 24, 32, 14, and 84
I find it hard to understand what the question really is.
Very confusing wording.
Rs 155 is divided into 4 parts in such a way that if the first part is diminished by 4,second be increased by 5,the third be divided by 2 and fourth be multiplied by 3,then find the first part? ans(40)
