A certain amount is equally distributed among certain of students Each would get Rs. 2 less if 10 student were more and each would get Rs. 6 more if 15 student were less. Find the number of student and the amount distributed.​ ​​

Answer»

GIVEN:-

  • A certain amount is DISTRIBUTED equally to each and every student.
  • If each would get Rs. 2 less if 10 student were more
  • If each would get Rs. 6 more if 15 student were less.

To Find:-

  • Number of students and the amount distributed.

Required Response:-

Let, Number of students be X & Amount distributed to each student y.

Then, Total Amount distributed to all the students is 'xy'.

According to given, each would get Rs. 2 less if 10 student were more...

(x + 10)(y - 2)   = xy \\ x(y - 2) + 10(y - 2) = xy \\ xy - 2x + 10y - 20 = xy \\  - 2x + 10y - 20 = xy - xy \\ 2( - x + 5y - 10) = 0 \\  - x + 5y = 10

  • -x+5y = 10 ➝①

And according to each would get Rs. 6 more if 15 student were less.

(x - 15)(y + 6) = xy \\ x(y + 6) - 15(y + 6) = xy \\ xy + 6x - 15y - 90 = xy \\ 6x - 15y - 90 = xy - xy \\ 3(2x - 5y - 30) = 0 \\ 2x - 5y = 30

  • 2x-5y = 30 ➝ ②

By adding EQUATIONS ① & ②

-x+5y = 10

2x-5y = 30

(+)________

x = 40

By Substituting Value of x[40] in any equation

2x - 5y = 30 \\ 2(40) - 5y = 30 \\ 80 - 5y = 30 \\  - 5y = 30 - 80 \\ y =  \frac{ - 50}{ - 5}  \\ y = 10

y = 10

Total Amount Distributed is xy → 10×40 ☞ ₹400

Total Number of Students

  • \longmapsto\;{\red{\bold{40}}}

Total Amount Distributed

  • \longmapsto\;{\purple{\bold{Rs.400}}}

Amount Each Student Received

  • \longmapsto\;{\purple{\bold{Rs.10}}}
