Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
let the total no. of toffies be x
then, toffies given to elder son = x/3
remaining toffies = x- x/3 = 2x/3
toffies given to younger son = 1/4 × 2x/3
= x/6
still 30 toffies are left.
A/q
x/3 + x/6 + 30 = x
x - x/3 - x/6 = 30
(6x - 2x - x)/6 = 30
3x/6 = 30
x = 30 × 6/3
x = 60
total toffies = 60
toffies given to younger son = x/6 = 60/6
= 10
