Question

Geeta has twice as much money as snigdha has. If geeta gives 1500 to snigdha, snigdha will have twice as much money as geeta. How much money did each of them have?

Answer 1

geeta's money =x and snigdha's =y
ATQ
x=2y
2(x-1500)=y+1500
2x-3000=y+1500
2x-y=4500
put value of x=2y
4y-y=4500
y=4500/3=1500

x=2*4500/3
x=9000/3
x=3000

Answer 2

$\Huge\boxed{\underline{\underline{\tt{\blue{Answer !!}}}}}$

☆Let geeta's money = x

☆Let snigdha's = y

●Now, According to the question,

▪︎x = 2y

▪︎2 (x - 1500) = y + 1500

▪︎2x - 3000 = y + 1500

▪︎2x - y = 4500

●

put value of x = 2y

▪︎4y - y = 4500

▪︎y = 4500/3 = 1500...eq(2)

●Now we know that x = 2y then eq(2) becomes

▪︎x = 2 × 4500/3

▪︎x = 9000/3

▪︎x = 3000

•Thus

▪︎Geeta has ₹3000.

▪︎Snigdha has ₹1500.
