The question is unclear, but here's the sense I took it in:

Yashi scored 40 marks in a test, when scored as: +3 for correct, -1 for incorrect answers. Had the scheme been: +4 for correct answers, -2 for incorrect answers, the score would've been 50. Determine the number of correct/incorrect/total questions.

40 = 3x - y

=> 80 = 6x - 2y

50 = 4x - 2y

Adding, we get:

130 = 8x

x = 130 / 8 = 16.25

...which is absurd, since x is the number of correct answers, and needs to be a whole number.

So. Yeah. Please correct the question.
