OPtion

1) Rs. 64 and person = 7

2) Rs. 74 and person = 6

3) Rs. 68 and person = 3

4) Rs. 54 and person = 5

5) Rs. 54 and person = 2

6) Rs. 76 and person = 8

7) Rs. 74 and person = 9

8) Rs. 96 and person = 8

9) Rs. 54 and person = 1

10)None of these Solution

Let man have x rupees with him and let the number of person by y, A man wishes to give Rs. 12 to each person and found that he fell short of Rs. 6

12y = x + 6 (i)

When he distributed Rs.9 to each person, he has left with Rs. 9 with him

9y = x - 9 (ii) Solve

Rs. 54 and number of person 5

Option 4)

Dada Khalandar   8 years AGO

Let the number of persons be x and the total money be Rs y

Given when Rs 12 is given to each person he was short of Rs 6

Hence 12x − y = 6 → (1)

Also when Rs 9 is given to each person he is left with Rs 9

Hence y − 9x = 9 → (2)

Add (1) and (2), we get

3x = 15 ∴ x = 5

Number of persons is 5

Put x = 5 in (1), we get 12(5) − y = 6

⇒ y = 60 − 6 = 54

Hence the money is Rs 54.

AMIT SINGH   8 years AGO

let no. of persons be \'x\'

then total sum of money,S=12*x-6-----(1)

and also,S= 9*x+9-----(2)

on solving both equations,

we get x(no. of persons)=5

and total sum of money,S=54

12*x-6=y 9*x+9=y

solving these x=5persons and y=54

Like? Yes (1) | No

ANUP KUMAR   8 years AGO

LET, X = TOTAL AMOUNT AND Y = no.OF PERSON

Y = 12X - 6----(1) Y = 9X + 9----(2)

SOLVING eq(1) AND eq(2),we get

x = 5 y = 54

Rs. 54 and person = 5

Like? Yes (5) | No (4)

venkatesh   8 years AGO

Let us say there are X people.

Let the total amount be Rs.Y

Man tried to distribute certain amount among cetain number of people and found that he fell short of 6 rs. So if we consider the number of people to be X

the total amount man has is

Y=X*12-6--------[1]

Now man distributed 9 rs among X persons and found that he was left with 9 rs.

hence the total amount can be calculated as

Y=X*9+9---------[2]

equating [1] and [2]

we have Y=X*12-6=X*9+9

this gives X=5(no of people)

and Y= Rs.54 (total amount with the man)

Like? Yes (1) | No

sakshi   8 years AGO

Let no of person is x

So 12x-6=9x+9 So x=5 Total money =9*5=45

Pradeep   8 years AGO

54rs and 5 persons he left 9rs , and he given each person 9rs so 9*5=45+9 (he left ) =54 and at first he wished to give 12rs but 6rs is less if he give 12rs to five persons 12*5=60 - 6rs less so answer is 54 and 5 persons

Like? Yes (2) | No (2)

sivaraman   8 years AGO
