Question

mukul has three times as much money as atul.if mukul gives RS 250 to atul,atul will have twice as much money as mukul .how much moneydid each of them have. (after finding the answer Find LHS=RHS)

Answer 1

Money with Atul     =  z
Money with Mukul =  3z

    z + 250 = 2 (3z - 250)

∴  z + 250 = 6z - 500

     z - 6z = - 500 - 250
   
     -5z     = -750

         z     = -750/-5
         
                = 150

∴ Money with Atul     =  z

                                     = 150

   Money with Mukul  =  3z

                                     = 3 * 150

                                     = 450

Answer 2

Answer:

let amount Mukul has=x

and that of Atul=y

x=3y→(1.)

2×(x−250)=(y+250)

2x−500=y+250

2(3y)−y=750

5y=750

∴y=150Rs

∴x=3y=450Rs
