Answer 1

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

B = x rupees

A = x + 50 rupees

-----------

After B takes ₹35 from A

B = x + 35 rupees

A = x + 50 - 35 = x + 15 rupees

equation:

money with B = double of money with A

(x + 35) = (x + 15) * 2

x + 35 = 2x + 30

x = 5

--------------------

B = x rupees = 5 rupees

A = x + 50 rupees = 5 + 50 = 55 rupees
