Question

razia has twice as many pens as shina has ,. Total they have 60 pens . Find the number of pens each of them has.

Answer 1

let x be shina pens

= 2x+x=60

3x=60

x=60/3

x=20

therefore shinas pens = 20

razia pens =2x=2×20 == 40

Answer 2

Answer:

shina =20, raziya=40

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of pens Shina has be x.

Then, Raziya has 2x pens.

therefore,

x+2x=60

or,3x=60

or,x=60/3

or, x=20

therefore shina has 20 pens and raziya has 20*2=40 pens
