उत्तर
Pocket money of Samidha = Rs. x
Pocket money of Sherya = Rs. y
According to given information, we have
x - 500 = y ....(i)
⇒ x - y = 500
And, y - 500 = `(3)/(5)`x
⇒ 5y - 2500 = 3x
⇒ 5(x - 500) - 2500 = 3x
⇒ 5x - 2500 - 2500 = 3x
⇒ 2x = 5000
⇒ x = 2500
⇒ y
= 2500 - 500
= 2000
THus, pocket money of Samidha is Rs.2500 and that of Sherya is Rs.2000.
