Dhanvin is in the habit of saving one-rupee coins given to him by his mother. One day, he
opened his piggy bank and showed the number of one-rupec coins to his father, Rajeev
Rajeev doubled the number of coins and said that Dhanvin should share them equally with
his three brothers. He gave X number of one-rupee coins to his first brother, Yavin and
showed the remaining to Rajeev. Rajeev doubled them again. Then Dhanvin gave the same
X number of one-rupee coins to his second brother, Charan and showed the remaining to
Rajeev. He doubled them again and Dhanvin gave the same X number of one-rupee coins to
Reyansh, the third brother. When he showed the remaining one-rupee coins to Rajeev, he
doubled them again and then Dhanvin had exactly X number of one-rupee coins for himself.

Step-by-step explanation:
You can check answer after solving.
Solution :-
Let initially dhanvin had total N number of coins .
now,
→ Rajiv doubles them = 2N coins .
and,
→ He gave to first brother, Yajvin = x coins .
now,
→ Rajiv doubles left coins again = 2(2N - x) = (4N - 2x) coins .
again,
→ Left coins after giving x coins to his second brother Charan = (4N - 2x) - x = (4N - 3x) coins .
now,
→ Rajiv doubles left coins again = 2(4N - 3x) = (8N - 6x)
again,
→ Left coins after giving x coins to his third brother Reyansh = (8N - 6x) - x = (8N - 7x) coins .
finally, when rajiv doubles left coins they were equal to x .
→ 2(8N - 7x) = x
→ 16N - 14x = x
→ 16N = 15x
now, solving questions :-
1. If Dhanvin started with 30 one-rupee coins, how many did he give to Yajvin?
A. 30
C. 32
B. 31
D. 33
→ N = 30
so,
→ 16 * 30 = 15 * x
→ 16 * 2 = x
→ x(given to yajvin) = 32 (C)
2. What is the minimum number of one-rupee coins could Dhanvin have started with?
A 15
C. 18
B.16
D. 10
for minimum numbers N = 1,
→ 16N = 16 (B)
3. If Dhanvin started with 30 one-rupee coins, what is number of one-rupee coins created (contributed) by Rajeev to all the four brothers?
A. 30
B. 32
C. 128
D.98
when dhanvin started with 30 one rupee coins , N = 30,
→ 16 * 30 = 15x
→ x = 32
then,
→ x coins given to three brothers + 2 extra coins in last to dhanvin = 32 * 3 + 2 = 96 + 2 = 128 (C)
4. What is the maximum possible number contributed by Rajeev, to the X one-rupee coins received by Yajvin, if Dhanvin started with 15 onc-rupee coins?
A. 14
C. 16
B. 15
D. none of these
N = 15,
→ 16 * 15 = 15x
→ x = 16 (C)
