Solution

The correct option is C

47


Number of Gulab jamuns eaten by Raju = x

Number of Gulab Jamuns eaten by Kamal = 6x + 5

Number of Gulab Jamuns eaten by Chris = 8

Total Number of Gulab Jamuns eaten by them = 62.

x+6x+5+8=62

7x+13=62

7x=6213

7x=49

x=7.

Number of Gulab Jamun's eaten by kamal =6x+5

=6(7)+5

=42+5

=47
