Question

rishu shandilya · Answer

Yes I accept my mistake tanmoy is right

Tanmoy Basak · Answer

X=2, the equation wrote by Rishu Shandilya has a slight mistake I guess. 4 and 9 in equation i and ii are multiplied to the R.H.S and not on the L.H.S. On solving we finally find x=2

rishu shandilya · Answer

X=2
Let Aditya have= A chocklete .
Aman=60-A
After aditya give X chocklete to Aman then EA,
(A-x)=4(60-A+x)
Second eq.
A+2x)=9(60-A-2x)
Solving both you get answer

If Aditya gave X chocolates to Aman he would have four times the number of chocolates Aman would have if Aman gave 2x chocolate to Aditya Aditya would have nine times a number of chocolates Aman would have they have a total of 60 chocolates find x.
