Question

some boys together spent Rs 162 each boys spent twice as many quarter ruppes as the number of boys. find the number of boys.​

Answer 1

Answer:

number of boys=18

let no. of boys = x

2(x/4)= money spent by each boy

2(x/4) × x = rs 162

x/2 × x= 162

x² = 324

x = 18 (no. of boys)

Answer 2

Answer:

let no. of boys be X

money spent by each boy = 2× (X/4)= X/2

total money = Rs. 162

= (no. of boys) × (money spent by each boy)

=X × (X/2)

=> 162 = X²/2

=> X² = 162 × 2

=> X² = 324

=> X = 18
