Decimals and Fractions Practice Test 4

Let the amount paid by the first person = Rs x
Amount paid by the other 3 persons = 6,000 - x
So, x=

6000−x

2

2x+x=6000
x=

6000

3

=Rs‌.2000
Amount paid by the second person = Rs y
Other persons paid = (6,000 - y)
y=

6,000−y

3

3y=6000−y
4y=6000⇒y=Rs.1500
Amount paid by the third person = Rs z
Amount paid by the other persons = (6,000 - z)
z=

6,000−z

4

4z=6,000−z
5z=6,000
z=Rs‌1,200
Total amount paid by the first, three persons = 2,000 + 1,500 + 1,200 = Rs 4,700
Amount paid by the fourth person = 6,000 - 4,700 = Rs 1,300
