Question

A man in order to train his new employees gives x questions for one hour and in next hour he gives 10 more question compared to what he gave in the first hour. After two hours he finds the number of questions solved is four less than his target which is 88, how many questions were answered in the first hour?

Answer 1

Number of questions answered in first hour = x

Number of questions solved in the next hour = x+10

Number of questions solved = 88-4 = 84

Number of questions solved in two hours = x+x+10

= 2x+10

2x +10=84

x=37
