Question

Ram got 8 marks more than Shyam in an
examination. Anil got 4 marks more than
Ram in the same examination. If all three of
them got 128 marks together as a total,
Ram's marks would be
(1) 36
(2) 44
(3) 38
(4) 54​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let Shyam's mark be x

Then Ram's mark = x + 8

Anil got 4 mark more than Ram so

Anil's mark = x+8+4 = x + 12

All of them got 128 marks together so

x + x + 8 + x + 12 = 128

3x + 20 = 128

3x = 128 - 20 = 108

x = 108/3 = 36

Thus Ram's mark = 36 + 8 = 44

Answer 2

Answer:

44

Step-by-step explanation:

let the marks of steam b x

then ram marks x+8

and Anil marks x+8+4

x+x+8+x+8+4 =128

3x+20 = 128

3x = 108

X = 108/3

X = 36

ram = x+8 = 36+8= 44
