Three friends A, B and C have different amounts of rupees with them. If B takes ₹7 from A, then B will have equal amount as C has. B and C together have total ₹157. How many rupees does C have? Correct Answer 82
Let the amount with B be X. Then, amount with B after taking ₹7 from A = X + 7
According to the given information, amount with C = X + 7.
Also, the amount with C + amount with B before taking ₹7 = 157.
⇒ X + 7 + X = 157
⇒ 2X = 157 - 7 = 150
⇒ X = 75
Thus, amount with C = 75 + 7 = 82.
Hence, C has Rs 82.
