Question

In the last three months Mr.Sharma lost 11/2kg gained 9/4kg and then lost 15/4kg .If he now weighs 95kg,how much did Mr.Sharma weigh to begin with?​

Answer 1

Answer:

102 or 96.5

Step-by-step explanation:

if it is 11/2 then its value is 5.5 or if it is 1 1/2 its value is 1.5

9/4 =2.25

again if it is 15/4 value is 3.75 or if it is 1 5/4 is value is 2.25

                                              so two outcomes

x-5.5+2.25-3.75=95                          or                       x-1.5+2.25-2.25=95

x-5.5-1.5=95                                                                 x-1.5=95      

x=95+5.5+1.5                                                               x=95+1.5

x=102                                                                           x=96.5
