  • Question
  • There are n boxes and m fruits. If we put 3 fruits in each box 3 fruits will be excess. If we put 4 fruits in each box 1 box will be excess. Find number of boxes and fruits ?


  • Options
  • A. 3 & 9
  • B. 6 & 19
  • C. 7 & 24
  • D. 5 & 18

  • Correct Answer
  • 7 & 24 

    Explanation

    7 boxes & 24 Balls.
    Let, n = No. of boxes ; m = No. of fruits
    3n+3 = m---------->(1)
    4(n-1)= m---------->(2)
    =>4n-4 = 3n+3;
    =>4n-3n = 4+3
    n = 7
    Put n=7 in eqn(1)
    => 3(7)+3 = m
    21+3 = m
    m = 24;

    Number of boxes = 7 and fruits = 24
