Navin and Santanu have a total of ₹ 147 between them. Santanu and Advani have ₹ 173 between them, and Advani and Navin have ₹ 150 between them. How much money does Navin have? Correct Answer ₹ 62

Total money of Navin and Santanu have Rs. 147

Total money of Santanu and Advain have Rs. 173

Total money of Advani and Navin have Rs. 150

Let Navin, Santanu and Advani can be represented by N, S and A respectively

⇒ N + S = 147     ---(1)

⇒ S + A = 173     ---(2)

⇒ A + N = 150     ---(3)

Subtract equation (1) from equation (2)

⇒ A – N = 26     ---(4)  

Subtract equation (4) from equation (3)

⇒ 2N = 124

⇒ N = 124/2

⇒ N = 62

∴ Navin has Rs. 62.
