Question

Sachin scored twice as many ruma as rahul. Together, their runs fell two short a double century. How many runs did each make

Open in App
Solution

Let runs scored by Machine be x.
Then runs scored by David=2x
Given that their runs were twice short that double century
Double century means 200runs.
Twice short double century=200-2=198runs
Therefore
x + 2x = 198

3x = 198

x = 66

===========================

Runs scored by Rahul = x = 66
Runs scored by Sachin = 2x = 132
