Question

Sachin scored twice as many runs as Rahul. Together, their runs fells two short of a double century. How many runs did each one score?

Answer 1

Answer:

Given that Sachin scores twice as many runs as Rahul. So the runs scored by Sachin is 2x . Hence, the runs scored by Sachin is 132 . Note: In linear equations variable terms should be added or subtracted to the same variable term only and constants should be added or subtracted only with constants.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

Rahul = 66 runs

Sachin = 132 runs

Step-by-step explanation:

(Always break these questions and solve it will be easier then)

Sachin scored twice as many runs as Rahul.

Rahul = x

Sachin = 2x

Together, their runs fells two short of a double century.

double century = 200 (century means hundred)

Rahul + Sachin = 200 - 2 (2 short means 2 less than)

x + 2x = 200 - 2

3x = 198

x = 198 ÷ 3

x = 66 runs (Rahul)

2x = 2 * 66 = 132 runs (Sachin)
