If an amount of Rs 74,336 is equally divided amongst 150 people, how much…

To split a total amount equally among a number of people, divide the total by the number of people: each person's share = Total amount ÷ Number of people.

1. Total amount to be divided = Rs 74,336; number of people = 150.

2. Each person's share = 74,336 ÷ 150.

3. Carrying out the division: 74,336 ÷ 150 ≈ 495.57.

4. Rounding to the nearest rupee gives an approximate share of Rs 496.

Checking backward: 496 × 150 = 74,400, which is close to the original Rs 74,336 (the small difference comes from rounding the exact quotient of 495.57 up to a whole number) — confirming Rs 496 as the correct approximate share.
