Question

Nitin is 14 kg. heavier than mohit. Arjun is the same weight as mohit. If the total weight of the three is 128 kg., what are Nitin's and Arjun's weight respectively?

Answer 1

let Arjun weight be X
so Mohit weight =X
Nitin weight =X+14
ATQ
Arjun weight +mohit weight +nitin weight =128kg
X+X+X+14=128
3X+14=128
3X=128-14
3X=114
X=144/3
X=48kg
so arjun weight = 48
and mohit weight = 48kg
and nitin weight =48+14
=62Kg

Answer 2

Nitin's weight is 52 and Arjun's weight is 38

Given:

“Nitin is 14 kg heavier than mohit”

Arjun and mohit are in same weight, they are equal

Total weight is 128 kg

To find:

What is the weight of Nitin and Arjun.

Answer:

Let us assume Mohit weight is ‘x’

The Arjun weight is same as Mohit, so Mohit weight = x

The Nitin’s weight is 14 kg heavier than Mohit’s weight, so Nitin weight = x + 14

Given three members weight = 128

$x+x+x+14\quad =\quad 128$

$3x+14\quad =\quad 128$

$3x\quad =\quad 128-14$

$3x=114$

$x=\frac{114}{3}x=38$

The weight of Arjun x=38

The weight of Nitin = x+14 =38+14 =52
