Question

The weight of Manesh is 3 kg less than twice the weight of Bhavesh. If
their total weight is 78 kg, find the weight of both.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

• let weight of manesh be x
• let weight of Bhavesh be y
• x+y=78 eq . 1 ( given )
• x=2y-3 eq. 2 ( from the given data)
• from 1 & 2
• 2y-3+y=78
• 3y=75
• y=25
• put y value in 2
• we get
• x=47
• hence weight of manesh is 47 kg and weight of Bhavesh is 25 kg ...

Answer 2

Answer:

Thus Wt of Bhavesh=27 kg

and wt of Manesh=2*27-3

=54-3=51 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

LET WT OF BHAVESH IS =x

THEN WT OF MANESH IS=2x-3

sum of wt x+2x-3=78

3x=81

x=81/3=27

Thus Wt of Bhavesh=27 kg

and wt of Manesh=2*27-3

=54-3=51 kg
