Answer 1

Answer:

82 cards

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of cards Garima has to give

600-4x= 110+x

5x= 490

x= 82

Answer 2

Given:

Garima has 150 picture cards.

Tarun has 110 picture cards.

To find:

The number of cards must Garima give to Tarun so that Tarun will have 4 times as many cards as Garima

Solution:

Garima has 150 picture cards.

Tarun has 110 picture cards.

Garima must  give some cards to Tarun so that Tarun will have 4 times as many cards as Garima.

Let 'x' be the number of cards given by Garima to Tarun.

110 + x = 4 ( 150 - x )

110 + x = 600 - 4x

4x + x = 600 - 110

5x = 490

x = $\frac{490}{5}$

x = 98

The number of cards given by Garima to Tarun was 98 cards.

Final answer:

Garima must  give 98 cards to Tarun so that Tarun will have 4 times as many cards as Garima.
