Question

Ranjan went to palt with 60 marbles. In 8 games he gained -5 marbles each and in 4 games he gained 4 marbles. How many marbles did Ranjan have at the end

Answer 1

Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

total no.of marbles = 60

boy lost 5 marbles in 8 games

Total no.of marbles lost = 5×8 = 40______1

boy gained 4 marbles in 4 games

total no.of marbles gained = 4×4 = 16____2

now, from (1),(2),

no.of marbles gained < no.of marbles lost

therefore no of marbles lost in 8 games = 40-16 =24

total no.of marbles with boy at present = 60-24 = 36
