Problema Solution

He invested half of his money in land, a tenth in stock and a twentieth in bonds. He put the remaining $35000 in a savings account.

Answer provided by our tutors

We will assume that the total amount of money is asked for. First, we will find the fraction that was put in savings.

1-(1/2)-(1/10)-(1/20)=7/20


find total amount, 'n':

(7/20)n=35000


Therefore:

n=$100,000
