Question

there are some number of coins on the table one fourth of which are showing heads if I turn over two coins one third of them show heads how many coins are there on the table?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Total coins on the table = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number coins on the table = x

Number of coins showing heads = x/4

Number of coins showing tails = 3x/4

If he term over two coins , then

Number of coins showing heads = one third of total coins

$\frac{x}{4}+2 = \frac{x}{3}$

$\implies 2 = \frac{x}{3}-\frac{x}{4}\\=\frac{4x-3x}{12}$

$\implies 24 = x$

Therefore,

Total coins on the table = 24
