let monday be m
then tuesday=3m
and they have given wednesday as 4000 cheques
so total three days she processed 16000 cheques i.e
m+3m+4000=16000
4m+4000=16000
4m=12000
m=3000.
so she processed cheques on tuesday=3*3000=9000.

Tuesday= 9000

Like as Monday= x
Tuesday=3x
Wednesday=4000
Toatl = 16000

then 16000- Wednesday (4000) = 12000

Now Reaming=== 12000

x+3x=12000
4x=12000
x=120004
x=3000

then Tuesday=3
so 3000*3=9000

It's mean Tuesday= 9000
