Answer:
Let A has x mangoes and B has y mangoes.
Then, according to the question,
x+30=2(y−30)
x−2y=−90 .......(1)
And, 3(x−10)=y+10
3x−y=40 ..........(2)
On multiplying equation 2 by 2, and subtracting the result equation from 1, we get,
−5x=−170
x=34
On putting x=34 in equation 1, we get,
y=62
Therefore, A has 34 mangoes and B has 62 mangoes.
