Question

Four friends, Arjun, Bhuvan, Guran and Lakha were comparing the number of sheep that they owned. It was found that Guran had ten more sheep than Lakha. If Arjun gave one-third to Bhuvan, and Bhuvan gave a quarter of what he then held to Guran, who then passed on a fifth of his bolding to Lakha, they would all have an equal number of sheep. How many sheep did each of them posses? Give the minima

Answer 1

Explanation:

let us consider each of them have x sheep

guran now has 10 more than lakha=10+x

and arjun gave 1/3rd to bhuvan

that is bhuvan have sheep=1/3x+x

another condition is

all of them have equal sheep

then equalise above two equtions

then

10+x=1/3x+x

then x=30.
