Question

Determine the smallest sum of money out of which a number of boys,girls and adults may receive 150, 180 and 240

Answer 1

Answer: Since,the number of boys/girls/adults aren't specified. we will take to be 'n'.

We know that,

                      A boy needs 150 Rs.

                      A girl needs 180 Rs.

                      An adult needs 240 Rs.

If we take,

               number of boys=number of girls=number of adults=n.

Smallest amount of money required= n(150+180+240)
