A man gives 50% of his money to his son and 30% to his daughter. 80% of the rest is donated to a trust. If he is left with Rs. 16,000 now, how much money did he have in the beginning?

A. Rs. 4,00,000

B. Rs. 40,000

C. Rs. 8,00,000

D. Rs. 80,000

Answer: Option A

Solution (By Examveda Team)

Let has total money as 100.
50% given to his son,
Son gets = 50.
30% of 100, given daughter,
Daughter gets = 30.
Rest = 100 - 50 - 30 = 20.
Now, he donated 80% of 20.
Donation = 16.
Rest = 20 - 16 =4.
Now Comparing,
4 = 16000
1 = 16000/4
100 = (16000 *100)/4 = Rs. 4, 00, 000.
