Question

15. Frustrated with his consistent low scores in
mathematics, Pradip tore off a certain number of
consecutive leaves from his Maths book Each leaf
is numbered on either side and is considered to be
two pages. If the sum of the page numbers on the
pages which he tore off was 720, then how many
pages did Pradip tear off from the book?​

Answer 1

Answer:

we can not get any unique solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

I believe Question misses some information

as it can be different page numbers

359  & 361    Then total = 4 pages

238 , 240 , 242  Then Total = 6 Pages

177 , 179 , 181 , 182  , then total =  8 pages

in this way there can be different cases

so we can not get any unique solution.

Answer 2

32.

Since all the pages have to be consecutive.

From page number 7 to page number 38 i.e

7+8+9+10+11+12+13+14+15+16+17+18+19+20+21+22+23+24+25+26+27+28+29+30+31+32+33+34+35+36+37+38 =720.
