Question 66

If A collected 54 coins and B collected two more coins than twice the number of coins collected by C, then the number of coins collected by B could be

Solution

Share

Number of coins with A = 54

Number of coins with B = 2x+2

Number of coins with C = x

Number of coins with D = y

54+3x+2+y = 100

3x+y = 44

If 2x+2 = 28, then x = 13 and y = 5 which is not possible.

If 2x+2 = 20, then x = 9 which is not possible.

If 2x+2 = 26, then x = 12 and y = 8 which is not possible

If 2x+2 = 22, then x = 10 and y = 14 which is feasible
