Kamal and Hari collected a total of 836 stamps .kamal collected 320 more stamps then hari.how many stamps did kamal collect?
Answers
Answer :-
Number of stamps collected by Kamal are 578.
Solution :-
Let the number of stamps collected by Hari be x
Number of stamps collected by Kamal = 320 more than number of stamps collected by Hari = x + 320
Total Stamps collected by both of them = 836
⇒ Number of stamps collected by Kamal + Number of stamps collected by Hari = 836
⇒ (x + 320) + x = 836
⇒ x + 320 + x = 836
⇒ 2x + 320 = 836
Transpose 320 to RHS
⇒ 2x = 836 - 320
⇒ 2x = 516
Transpose 2 to RHS
⇒ x = 516/2
⇒ x = 258
Number of stamps collected by Hari = x = 258
Number of stamps collected by Kamal = (x + 320) = 258 + 320 = 578
Therfore number of stamps collected by Kamal are 578.
Verification :-
(x + 320) + x = 836
Substituting x + 320 = 528 , x = 258 in the above equation
⇒ 578 + 258 = 836
⇒ 836 = 836
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :-
Total number stamps collected by Kamal and Hari = 836
Number of stamps collected by Kamal = 320 more than Hari
Solution :-
Number of stamps collected by Hari = x + 320
⇒ Number of stamps collected by Kamal + Number of stamps collected by Hari = 836
⇒ (x + 320) + x = 836
⇒ x + 320 + x = 836
⇒ 2x + 320 = 836
⇒ 2x = 836 - 320
⇒ 2x = 516
⇒ x = 516/2
⇒ x = 258
Finding stamps collected by both.
Number of stamps collected by Hari = x = 258
Number of stamps collected by Kamal = (x + 320)
= 258 + 320
= 578
Hence, number of stamps collected by Hari is 258 and number of stamps collected by Kamal is 578.
