Explain and answer​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

ANSWER:-

Given:-

• Irfan has 7 marbles more than 5 times of Parmit
• Irfan has 37 marbles

To find:-

Number of Marbles of Parmit.

Let's Do!

From this we can easily say that the statement given is to form equation and somewhere relate it to the number of marbles Irfan has.

Let the number of marbles Parmit has be x.

So, forming equation:-

$\sf{5x + 7 = 37}$

$\sf{5x = 37-7}$

$\sf{5x = 30}$

$\sf{x = \dfrac{30}{5}}$

$\sf{x = 6}$

So, number of marbles Parmit has is 6 marbles.

Assumption helps to make equations easy to solve.

Answer 2

Answer:

Given :-

• Irfan has 7 marbles more than five times the marbles Parmit has. Irfan has 37 marbles.

To Find :-

• How many marbles does Parmit have ?

Solution :-

Let, the number of marbles does Parmit have be x marbles.

$\bigstar \: \boxed{\sf{According\: to\: the\: question\: :-}}$

⇒ $\sf 5x + 7 =\: 37$

⇒ $\sf 5x =\: 37 -\: 7$

⇒ $\sf 5x =\: 30$

⇒ $\sf x =\: \dfrac{\cancel{30}}{\cancel{5}}$

➠ $\sf\boxed{\bold{x =\: 6}}$

$\therefore$ The number of marbles does Parmit have is 6 marbles .

${\underline{\boxed{\mathcal{\pmb{\quad VERIFICATION\: :-\quad}}}}}$

↦ $\sf 5x + 7 =\: 37$

By putting x = 6 we get,

↦ $\sf 5(6) + 7 =\: 37$

↦ $\sf 5 \times 6 + 7 =\: 37$

↦ $\sf 30 + 7 =\: 37$

↦ $\sf\bold{\pink{37 =\: 37}}$

➦ LHS = RHS

Hence, Verified .
