A daughter wanted to buy a laptop and had no cash on her. At the end of the day, she borrowed #50,000[/b]each from her parents. She bought the laptop for [b]#97,000[/b]and had a change of [b]#3,000.

She got home and felt she should repay her debts. She gave her father #1,000 and her mother #1,000.

She kept the remaining ]#1,000 to herself.

From the explanation above, she would be oweing her father #49,000 and mother #49,000.

Then the addition of her debt is #49,000 + #49,000 = 98,000


She had #1,000 to herself;

98,000+1,000= 99,000


WHERE IS THE REMAINING #1,000 LEFT FOR IT TO BE #100,000

Theres no KOBO missing

She bought the laptop for 97K
3K remaining
She gave Dad 1K
Mom 1K
kept 1K


total=
97K+1K+1K+1K
100K

Op pay up quick.

Tenison96: Theres no KOBO missing

She bought the laptop for 97K
3K remaining
She gave Dad 1K
Mom 1K
kept 1K


total=
97K+1K+1K+1K
100K

wrong oh.... if it was as simple as this... would it involve gift?

GAZZUZZ: Op pay up quick.

Pay up what? he was wrong oh

Lemme clerify more...

she borrowed fifty thousand from mum
also fifty thousand from dad.

she returned one thousand naira each to them at the end of d day which means she was now oweing #49,000 to each of them and laptop na 97,000.

the total money she'd return would be 49,000 (mother)+ 49,000 (father) which is 98,000 naira and she had #1,000 with her, making


98,000+ 1,000 = 99,000


WHERE'S THE REMAINING ONE THOUSAND??

The question itself involves racking d brain.

There is no 'missing' money. See, after
borrowing 100k, you used up 97k for
the laptop. You returned 1k to
each of your parents, so you owe 98k
total. This 98k should correspond to
the 97k (for the laptop) plus the 1k
that you have with you simple. I.e u borrowed 100k returned 2k remaining 98k bought d lappy 97k which leaves the 1k with u. Got it? Now where's ma gift

Oho! Dis s injustice o. Where so ma own name??

TemitopeDaniel: U wrong oh... after giving mother 1,000 and father likewise, she'd b owein dem 49,000 each.

proof it! when u add 49,000+49,000+ the one thousand with her is 99k. where's the 1k that's left?

Am not wrong oh.....except u do not comprehend wat I said. Lemme explain it another way. U borrowed 100,000 in total and returned 1000 to each parent that's 100,000-2,000= 98,000. So u owe 98,000 now let's account for the 98,000 u still owe. Out of it, u bought a laptop of 97,000 and u have 1000 that's still with u. So 97,000+2,000+1,000 gives us the 100,000 total. got it now?. So where's my gift?
PS. U do not add the 1k with her to the total owed its already part of the initial amount borrowed

Or maybe she got 99,000 instead of 100,000 she should ask her parents very well

She used the remaining 1000 for her transport fare.

Temitope Daniel.....Did I get d answer right?

Jeeezz! T.dan

She didn't give her parents 1000...she gave them #500 each

That means she's owing them #49,500 each

She kept 1000 to herself..

Therefore: 49500+49500= 90000

90000+1000=1000.

Temitope Daniel...oya come oo


Xtarxhyne....Lorlaahlozz nd Missyhorlah come nd solve dis problem oo

princesa: Or maybe she got 99,000 instead of 100,000 she should ask her parents very well

Lol...

lanicky: Jeeezz! T.dan

She kept 1000 to herself..

Therefore: 49500+49500= 90000

90000 99,000 [b]+1000=1000. [b] 10,000

Temitope Daniel...oya come oo


Xtarxhyne....Lorlaahlozz nd Missyhorlah come nd solve dis problem oo

wonderfully wrong, a wrong approach.

the money is 49,000 each and not 49,500.

U ppl shouldn't twist d question oh... follow am as e b...

PS. U do not add the 1k with her to the total owed its already part of the initial amount borrowed

you've still not proven it to my taste... everyone knows that step. I'm talking about d 49,000 each she was oweing.

so, 49,000+49,000 +1,000 (that money she had left)

don't use d method of 98,000... everyone knws you'll get it that way, i'm talking about the method up there...

She lost d remaining 1000

U cant add the 1k she kept to her self. That 1k is no longer part of the money cos she has converted it to her personal money. So
99k - 1 = 98.
If u add the already 2 k returned. It makes it complete 100.

There is no 1k missing anywhere since at the point of getting the laptop, she had 101k with her, that is, getting 50k from each parent.... After the purchase, she had 4k left which means she didn't spend her 1k and had been kept aside, so after returning 1k each to the parents, she had her 1k with her which is the 1k left of the 100k since she got the laptop for 97k and had returned 1k each... Now assuming she borrowed 49k each since after she got the laptop she returned 1k... 98k borrowed-1k left is 97k...

runzlord: U cant add the 1k she kept to her self. That 1k is no longer part of the money cos she has converted it to her personal money. So
99k - 1 = 98.
If u add the already 2 k returned. It makes it complete 100.

the personal money u re saying is not hers oh! it's part of the money she borrowed, she just didn't want to be empty handed that's why she kept it. the money still belongs to hwr parents. You've nt given d right evaluation.

Mogenerous: There is no 1k anywhere since at the point of getting the laptop, she had 101k with her, that is, getting 50k from each parent.... After the purchase, she had 3k left which means she didn't spend her 1k, so after returning 1k each to the parents, she had her 1k with her. Which makes it 98k left to return i.e 49k for each parent... So judging with that it means
49+49+1k=99k... 99k+ 2k she returned=101k, the initially amount with her...

101k? na 100 na.

TemitopeDaniel: 101k? na 100 na.

modified. Check again...

TemitopeDaniel: you've still not proven it to my taste... everyone knows that step. I'm talking about d 49,000 each she was oweing.

so, 49,000+49,000 +1,000 (that money she had left)

don't use d method of 98,000... everyone knws you'll get it that way, i'm talking about the method up there...

chai....just tell me there's no gift ok let's look at it this way so you borrow 100k, cost of the laptop is 97k so you get 3k in
change.
total cost was 97 ÷ 2 people to pay back =
48.5 each
so if you give them each 1k change,
that’s 49.50 each, times 2 is 99 total, and the
remaining 1k goes to you. I didn't use the 98k method hope u ar satisfied now

TemitopeDaniel: the personal money u re saying is not hers oh! it's part of the money she borrowed, she just didn't want to be empty handed that's why she kept it. the money still belongs to hwr parents. You've nt given d right evaluation.

I know. But she has removed the money frm the 100k and made it hers now.

She borrowed 50k frm her mum and 50k frm her dad. She bought d lappi for 97k, she paid back 1k to dad and 1k to mum which means she's nw owing them 49k each. She kept back 1k, nw assuming she wanted to pay back everything, and she divides that her 1k, she would have given mum 1500 and dad 1500 which is equal to #3000, if u add it to the amount of d lappy 97,000 u'll get ur 100k back.

She had #1,000 to herself;

98,000+1,000= 99,000


WHERE IS THE REMAINING #1,000 LEFT FOR IT TO BE #100,000

...just tell me why you added #98,000 to the #1,000 left with her.
Because, in the real sense, you should add the cost of the laptop (97k), 2k she gave her parents, then 1k left with her...with this you have a total of 100k.
The 98k you calculated as 49k + 49k will be the sum of the 1k left with her, and 97k loan her husband gave her, before adding it to the 2k she gave her parents.
Incase you misplaced the prize, find a replacement ASAP.

Item Cost=97k
money borrowed=50 frm dad,50 frm mum
total debt=100k
amt left afta purchase=3k (of d original 100k)
paid 1k to mum,1k to dad
total money returned=2k(of 100k,lowering d debt to 98k.Kept d remaining 1k

Dept of 98k is a -ve sum
D 1k kept is a +ve sum
(adding a +ve numba to a -ve numba reduces d -ve numba)

If d last 1k was to be returned aswell den d debt wuld go frm owing 98k to 97k

(to recap)
borrowed 100k
spent 97k
returned 2k
kept 1k
97+2+1=100

Where the gift o

The 1k is with her o! Dat 1k wey she give herself na her own? When time reach dat one wey she give herself she go bring am out! Give me d whole script of Pemisire as gift.
