Step-by-step explanation:
let the number of oranges Sapna has be x
let the number of oranges Meena has be 2x ( twice as many oranges as Sapna)
2x + x = ( 4×12) - 3
3x = (48) - 3
3x = 45
x = 45 ÷ 3 = 15
The number of oranges Sapna has is 15 ( x =15)
The number of oranges Meena has is 30 (2x = 15 ×3)
Hope it helps.
