Arjun and Sajal are friends, each has some money. If Arun gives $30 to Sajal, the Sajal will have twice the money left with Arjun. But, if Sajal gives $10 to Arjun, Arjun will have thrice as much as is left with Sajal. How much money does each have?
Correct answer: B
Explanation
Suppose Arun has $X and Sajal has $Y. then,
2(x-30)= y+30 => 2x-y =90 …(i)
and x +10 =3(y-10) => x-3y = - 40 …(ii)
Solving (i) and (ii), we get x =62 and y =34.
Arun has $62 and Sajal has $34.
Answer B.
