Solution

The correct option is A 2x+20=50
Given that the initial number of sweets that Ram has is x.
Then, twice the number of sweets will be 2x.

20 sweets added to twice the number of sweets he has is represented by 2x+20.

Since the total number of sweets is 50, the required equation is 2x+20=50.
