Question

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

Answer 1

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

☆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.
