Question

Kunal bought some chocolates. Nitin bought twice the chocolate than Kunal and ate $3$ of them. If Kunal initially bought $5$ chocolates, then the number of chocolate left with Nitin is

• A. 3
• B. 5
• C. 7
• D. 8

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

$7$

Let the number of chocolates Kunal bought be '$x$'

Now Nitin bought twice the chocolate $=2\times x$

Nitin ate 3 chocolate, so the remaining is $2x-3$

So, unchanging relation is $2x-3$ when $x$ represents chocolate bought by Kunal

So, Nitin will have $2\times 5-3=7$ chocolates left with him
