He initially had 60,000 amount

Step-by-step explanation:

He gave 40% to Wife

and 20% to sons which is equal to 60%

100-60=40% left out is spent on miscellaneous items and saved in a bank equally. Half of 40% is 20% which is equal to tk 12,000

using cross product

20% 12,000

100% x

x = 12,000*100/20 = 60,000
