Answer 1

Answer:

Rajesh got 48 sweets and total number of sweets are 84 .

Answer 2

Rajesh got 48 sweets and total number of sweets in the box were 84

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the common multiple be X

So, Rohan got 3x sweets and Rajesh got 4x

Since , Rohan got 36

therefore, 3x=36

x=12

Now, Rajesh got 4x sweets

So, According to the given condition

4×12=48

so, Rajesh got 48 sweets.

According to the question,

the total number of sweets=

3x+4x

36+48= 84
