Given :   Deepu has certain number of flowers.  not less than 15 and not more than 30. If she wants give these flowers equally to four of her friends, then three flowers remain

To find : The number of flowers with deepu

Solution:

Correction : If she give these flowers equally to 3 of her friends. Then two flowers remain.

=> Flowers  = 3a  + 2

Flowers=  4b  + 3

3a  + 2 = 4b + 3

=> 3(a - 1)  = 4b - 2

=> 3(a - 1) = 2(2b - 1)

=>  3(a - 1) = 2(2b - 1) = 6k

=> a - 1 = 2k

=> a = 2k + 1    or 2b = 3k + 1

3a + 2 = 3(2 k + 1) + 2

= 6k + 5

4b + 3 = 2(3k + 1) + 3 =6k + 5

Flowers = 6k + 5

15 < 6k + 5  < 30

=> 10 < 6k  < 25

=> k = 2 , 3 , 4

Flowers = 17 , 23 , 29

Out of given option only 23 Satisfies this

Hence deepu has 23 Flowers
