Hi raghupavithra,

One possible method:

Day 1:
Tulips → (100 Boxes or 100 units or) 100 u
Roses → 100 u + 120


Day 2:
Tulips → 130 u
Roses → 80 u + 96


130 u + 80 u + 96 → 726
210 u → 726 - 96
1 u → ????


Can you continue from here?



Hope this helps.

Cheers

Q1 : There were thrice as many beads in Container A than Container B. Container C contains half as many beads as Container B. There were 1206 beads in all the 3 containers. Marcus transferred some marbles from Container A to Container C. As a result, the ratio of the number of beads in Container C to the total number of beads in Container A and B became 5 : 4. How many beads did Marcus transfer from Container A to Container C ?

Q2 : A rectangular tank 28 cm by 15 cm by 30 cm is 7/10 filled with water. Some water from the tank is poured away. The volume of water left in the tank is 1/3 of its capacity when completely filled. What is the decrease in height of the water level in the tank ?

Appreciate your help. Thank you in advance !

Hi Jerico,

One possible solution:


At first:
A → 6 u
B → 2 u
C → 1 u
Total → 9 u → 1206 beads


After the transfer:
A → 2 u
B → 2 u
C → 5 u
Total → 9 u → 1206 beads


Can you continue from here?

Hope this helps
