Question

Bala and Ethan had a total of 800 marbles. Bala gave 105 marbles to Etha Ethan then gave 49 marbles to Bala. In the end, Bala has four times as ma marbles as Ethan. How many marbles did Ethan have at first?​

Answer 1

Answer:

104

Step-by-step explanation:

At last Bala:ethan=4:1

5x=800

x=800/5=160

Marbles received by ethan=105-49=56

So ethan marbles at first=160-56=104

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Total marbles = 800 marbles.

Let Ethans' marbles be x.

Ethan got =x+105 and Ethan gave = (x+105)- 49

Ethan had = (x+105)-49/4 because bala had 4 times more than Ethan.

Ethan had earlier=) 800=(x+105)-49/4

=)x= 800-105-49/4

=)x= 646/4

:. x= 162(approx) (real is 161.5)
