Question

16. The sum of twice of a number and
thrice of 42 is 238 what will be the sum
of thrice of that number and twice of
42 ?
A) 245 B) 250 C) 264 D) 252​

Answer 1

Answer:

252

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+(3×42)=238

2x+126=238

2x=238-126

2x=112

x=56

3x+(2×42)

(3×56)+84=168+84=252

Answer 2

Answer:

The sum of thrice of 56 and twice of 42 = 252

Option D) is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume that, the number is x.

According to the problem:

2x + 3 times 42 = 238

=> 2x = 238 - 126 = 112

∴ x = 56

Now the sum of thrice of 56 and twice of 42:

= 3 times 56 + 2 times 42 = 168 + 84 = 252

Option D) is the correct answer.
