Mr. Pandit owned 950 gold coins all of which he distributed amongst his three daughters Lalita, Amita and Neeta. Lalita gave 25 gold coins to her husband, Amita donated 15 gold coins and Neeta made jewellery out of 30 gold coins. The new respective ratio of the coins left with them was 20 : 73 : 83. How many gold coins did Amita receive from Mr. Pandit?

• let they have x,y,z coins resp So x+y+z=970 Now x-25 +y-15+z-30=20p+73P+83p so x+y+z-70= 176p
  so 880=176p so p=5 now u can easily find Amita have 15+365(73*5) = 380

• we get a eqn like this
  20x+25+73x+15+83x+30 = 950
  176x = 880
  x = 5 then he asked about amita and amita got gold coins are 73x+15 = 73*5 +15 = 380
