Instructions

Direction for the following three questions: Answer the questions based on the following information. A, B, C and D collected one-rupee coins following the given pattern. Together they collected 100 coins. Each one of them collected even number of coins. Each one of them collected at least 10 coins. No two of them collected the same number of coins.

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

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
