and there was bleeding from her
knee. But after sometime bleeding
got stopped and there was a
formation of red coloured clot at the
point of injury. Can you tell who
helped in clotting?

Therefore,

\begin{gathered}= > x - ( \frac{8x + 8 + 4x + 4 + 2x + 2 + x + 1}{16} ) \\ = 15\end{gathered}
=>x−(
16

)
=15
\begin{gathered}= > x - ( \frac{15x + 15}{16} ) = 15 \\ = > \frac{16 x - 15x - 15}{16} \\ = 15 \\ = > x - 15 = 16 \times 15 = 240 \\ = > x = 240 + 15 = 255.\end{gathered}
=>x−(

=>

=15
=>x−15=16×15=240
=>x=240+15=255.
