7.Ten litres of milk was shared between John andGeorge.If Geroge was given 2 litres more than John,how many litres did eachget?

(1) Let Kazi's age be x years

Then Kasim age will be (x + 6) years

 

Given: Sum of ages of both is 54 years

 

Hence Kazi's age is 24 years and Kasim's age is 24 + 6 = 30 years

 

 

(2) Let the money with Salman be Rs y

Then the money with Supriya will be Rs (y – 6)

 

Given: They both together has Rs 44

 

Hence Salman has Rs 25 and Supriya has Rs (25 – 6) = Rs 19

1. x + x + 6 = 54

    2x + 6 = 54

     2x = 54-6

     2x = 48

      x =48/2

      x = 24

therefore,kasim's age =24+6=30 years

kazi's age = 24 years

all others can be done in the form of equation

1) Let Kazi's age be and Kasims age would be x+2

Then,

x+x+6 = 54

2x+6 = 54

2x = 48

x = 24

So  Kasims age would be 30 and Kazis age would be 24.

2)Let salman has Rs x and supriya has x-6

So 

x+x-6 = 44

2x-6 = 44

2x = 50

x = 25

So salman has Rs 25 and supriya has Rs 19

3) Let the number of each type of trees be x.

Then,

2x = 50

x = 25

So the number of coconut and mango trees are 25 each.

4)Let the number be x.

Then

x+x+1 = 69

2x+1 = 69

2x = 68

x = 34

So the numbers are 34 and 35

5)Let the side be x.

So,

x+x+x = 57

3x = 57

x = 19

So the side is 19cm.

6) Let the number of buffaloes be x then number of cows is 2x.

Then,

2x+x = 15

3x = 15

x = 5

The number of buffaloes will be 5 and the number of cows is 10.

7) Let the quantity of milk with john be x and with george it will be x+2

So,

x+x+2 = 10

2x+2 = 10

2x = 8

x = 4

So the john has 4l and george has 6l of milk.
