Question

Jiya has some chocolates .she distributed one-fifth part to Riya, one-fourth part to vansh and the half part to Dhruv. Now if 5 chocolates are left , then find how many chocolates were with her? if someone know then answer urgent.plz

Answer 1

Let's consider chocolates = x

Chocolates distributed to riya = x / 5

Chocolates distributed to vansh = x / 4

Chocolates distributed to dhruv = x / 2

+5 more chocolates left with her

So,
x = x /5 + x / 4 + x /2 + 5

LCM = 20

Multiply 20 with the terms. .

The sum will be :
20x = 4x + 5x + 10x +100

20x = 19x + 100

20x - 19x = 100

x = 100

So, she has 100 chocolates with her. ..

Hope this helps you. ...
THANK YOU. .
