Solution
Let ₹ x be the amount donated in a Relief fund by Subramaniam.
Then, the amount donated by Naidu will be ₹ (x + 125).
According to the question,
x + x + 125 = 975
⇒ 2x = 975 – 125 ...[Transposing 125 to RHS]
⇒ 2x = 850
⇒ x = ₹ 425 ...[Dividing both sides by 2]
Hence, the amount of money donated by Subramaniam is ₹ 425.
