Question

If you take '$x$' as the number of chocolates you have, and you receive twice the number of chocolates from your friend, then what will be the number of chocolates you have in total?

• A. $x$
• B. $3x$
• C. $x^2$
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is B

$3x$

You have '$x$' chocolates.
Since you get twice the number of chocolates from your friend='$2x$
So now, you will have thrice the number of chocolates you had initially.
Hence, the total number of chocolates you have will be equal to $3\times x=3x$
