Answer:
Manish = 170 stamps
Ravi = 380 stamps
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the no. of stamps Manish collected
No. of stamps Ravi collected = 40 + 2x
Total number of stamps = 550 stamps
=> 40 + 2x + x = 550
=> 40 + 3x = 550
=> 3x = 550 - 40
=> x = 510 ÷ 3
=> x = 170
Therefore, No. of stamps Manish collected = x = 170 stamps
No. of stamps Ravi collected
= 40 + 2x
= 40 + 2 × 170
= 40 + 340
= 380 stamps

Step-by-step explanation:
let the no. of stamps of manish be x
so,the stamps of ravi will be 2x+40
=x+2x+40=550
3x=550-40
x=510/3
x=170
no. of stamps manish had=170
no. of stamps ravi had=550-170=380.
