Question

There are two numbers such that the sum of twice the first number and thrice the second number is 300 and the sum of thrice the first number and twice the second number is 265. Which is the larger number?

  • 24
  • 39
  • 85
  • 74
  • None of these
Answer- D

By shorten the question,

2X + 3Y = 300

3X + 2Y = 265

By solving above two equations, we get X = 39, Y = 74

Hence larger number is 74.
