Question

lakshman scored 10 more runs than kohili . Their total score is 140 runs . Express this information in the form of an equation

Answer 1

Let the runs scored by Kohli = x
therefore,the runs scored by Lakshman = 10 + x
total score = 140
Therefore,the equation is, 10+x+x=140
                                            10+2x=140
You can solve this further to get their respective scores.

Answer 2

x+x+10=140
2x+10=140
2x=130
X=65
