Fruits

Written on 12:58 am by Vja Students

Chaitu and Dileep decided to make some jam. So they started to weigh the fruits. It turned out that 1 peach and 6 plums weighted as much as 1 pear. And, 3 peaches and a pear weighed as much as 10 plums. Chaitu started to think: how many plums would weigh as much as 1 pear? Dileep found the answer very quickly. How about you?


Ans:7 plums

    weight(7 plums) = weight(1 pear)

    Also,
    weight(1 plum) = weight(1 peach)

    weight of (7 plums ) - weight of (1 pear) = 0

    1PEACH + 6PLUM = 1PEAR.
    3PEACH + 1PEAR = 10PLUMS
    IPEAR=?PLUMS

    ANS:

    1PEAR = 1PEACH + 6PLUM,
    SO
    3PEACH + 1PEACH + 6PLUM =4PEACH + 6PLUM = 10PLUMS
    4 PEACH = 4PLUMS
    1PEACH=1PLUM
    ie;1 PEAR = 1PEACH + 6PLUM
    1 PEACH = IPLUM
    SO 1 PEAR = 1PLUM + 6PLUM
    1PEAR = 7PLUMS
