Question

.
Payal has 5 times money than Gaurav. She spend 17. If the square of the difference of her total
money and spent money is 64. Find the amount of Gaurav​

Answer 1

Answer:

Guarav had 5 at the beginning.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total amount that Payal has be x.

The difference between her total money and her spent money is equal to:

Difference = x - 17

The square of this difference gives us 64.

So, we have:

(x - 17)² = 64

x² - 34x + 289 = 64

x² - 34x + 289 - 64 = 0

x² - 34x + 225 = 0

x = (34 ±√34² - 4 × 225)/2

x = 25 or 9

Since she spent 17, we will take a value greater than this which in this case is 25

So, Payal had 25 at the beginning. This is 5 times more than what Guarav has.

Therefore, Guarav has : 25/5 = 5
