Question

Prepare equation for the given situation-Yash and Kirti has a certain number of tamarind seeds. Yash has 2 seeds less than that of Kirti. If yash has 28 seeds, prepare the equation to find, the number of seeds Kirti bas. (Suppose 'm' is the number of seeds Kirti has).

Answer 1

Hi ,

According to the problem given ,

Number of seeds Kirti had = m

Let Number seeds Yash had = n

Given ,

n = m - 2 ---( 1 )

If n = 28

Put this value in equation ( 1 ) ,

we get

28 = m - 2

28 + 2 = m

m = 30

Therefore ,

Kirti has 30 seeds .

Yash has 28 seeds .

Required equation

n = m - 2

I hope this helps you.

Answer 2

Suppose Kirti has m seeds.

Now, according to the question,

Yash has 2 seeds less than Kirti

means Yash has m-2 seeds

Given, m-2 = 28

m = 28+2

m = 30 seeds

So, Kirti has 30 seeds.

equation will be

m-2 = 28

and Kirti is having 30 seeds.

HOPE IT HELPS.
