Solution

The correct option is A 4
Option B) 4
Let number of apples Riya have = x
Number of apples Siya have = 22
Siya collected 18 more apples than Riya
Thus, Number of apples Siya have = 18 + number of apples Riya collected
22 = 18 + x
by trial and error method

Value of x LHS (22) RHS (18+ x) LHS=RHS (Yes or no)

1 22 18 + 1 = 19 No

2 22 18 + 2 = 20 No

3 22 18 + 3 = 21 No

4 22 18 + 4 = 22 Yes
