Answer 1

Given :   Rajesh and meena had a hobby of collecting sea shells. rajesh started holidays with 172 sea shells and meena 20 shells. each day of the holiday rajesh found 39 shells and meena found 77 shells

To find : how many days of holidays did they enjoy  if  at the end of the holidays they had the same number of shells

Solution:

Correction : rajesh found 39 shells  daily ( not 20)

Let say number of days of Holidays =  D

rajesh initially had sea shells  = 172

Rajesh Collected Daily = 39 Shells

Rajesh Collected in D Days  = 39D  Shells

Shells with Rajesh after Holiday = 172 + 39D   Shells

Meena initally had sea shells  = 20

Meena Collected Daily = 77 Shells

Meena Collected in D Days  = 77D  Shells

Shells with Meena after Holiday = 20 + 77D   Shells

172 + 39D    = 20 + 77D  

=>  38D = 152

=> D =  4

They Enjoyed 4 days of Holiday
