Shantanu Had 270 and Arihant Had 150 toffees in the beginning.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given Ratio = 9:5
No. of toffees Shantanu Have = 9x
No. of toffee Arihant Have = 5x
A.T.Q
9x - 60 = 5x + 60
9x - 5x = 60 + 60
4x = 120
x = 120/4
x = 30
So,
Number Of Toffee's Shantanu Had In The Beginning = 9x
= 9(30)
= 9*30
= 270 Toffees
Number Of Toffee's Arihant Had In The Beginning = 5x
= 5(30)
= 5*30
= 150 Toffees
