Question

Shekar gives a quarter of his sweets to renu and 5 sweets to ranji he has 7 sweets left. How many did he start with?

Answer 1

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

number of sweets with sekhar = x say

number of sweets given to Renu = 1/4 x x = x/4

number of sweets given to Ranji = 5

till he has 7 sweets left

x - x/4+5 = 7

x - x/4 -5 = 7

x - x/4 = 7+5

4x-x/4 = 12

3x/4 = 12

x = 12x4/3

x = 4x4

x = 16
