Correct Question:

Priya's father decided to distribute apples among patients of hospital on her birthday he brought 963 apples to distribute to the patients. The male patients are 3 more than two times female patients and children are two times female patients in a hospital. Each patient will get only one Apple. How many apples female patient will get ?

The number of female patients in the hospital is 192

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of female patients be x

The number of male patients was = 2x + 3

The number of children in the hospital was = 2x

Total number of apples = 963

Thus;

x + 2x + 3 + 2x = 963

5x + 3 = 963

5x = 963-3 = 960

x = 960/5 = 192

Thus, the number of female patients in the hospital is 192
