In the game of 500 points,
A gives B 80 points that means B got (500-80)=420
A gives B 101 points that means B got (500-101)=399
so, B:C=420:399
so, in the game of 420, B gives "21" (420-399) points to C..
so, in the game of 500, B gives to C as
500*21/420=25 points...

A gives B 80 points means B got 420 points.,(total 500 points)
and to C 101 points means C got 399 points.,
therefore.,
ratio b/w B and C is 420:399=500:475
so B can give C 25 points.,

A-B=80.....(I)
A-C=101.....(II)
SUBSTRACTING I FROM II

THEREFORE B-C=101-80=21 POINTS

they mentioned that in a game of total 500 points
so sum of all the points of A,B,C should be 500 points
let A got X points,from question given we can write B got X-80 points(difference between A and B points should be 80)similar to above C gets X-101 points
so total, 500=points of A + points of B + points of C
500=X+(X-80)+(x-101)
by solving we get x =227
so B got 227 - 80=147 points
C got 227 -101 =126 points
so difference between B and C points are 147 -126 =21
so we say B give C 21 points

Hi Thol can u please clarify the point on how the ration
420/399=500:475??

Is this solution Helpfull? Yes (6) | No   

thol  (10 years ago)

yeah sure.,
since the game is for 500 points.,we have to convert it for 500.,
then only we will be able to calculate hw many points B can give C.,
therefore 420:399=500:C.,which gives C=475.,
so B can give C 25 points

In the game of 500 points,
A gives B 80 points that means B got (500-80)=420
A gives B 101 points that means B got (500-101)=399
so, B:C=420:399
here the game is for 500 points so,
420:399=500:? (since, for 420 points 399(diff. is 21) for 500 points ?)
so,by product of means = product of extremes
420*?=500*399
420*?=199500
so,?=199500/420
?=475
hence, 420:399=500:475 (diff.of 500-475=25)
so,25 is the ans.
b gives c 25 points
hope u understand..............

I din get ur ans..can u pls explain??

yaswanth  (10 years ago)

the meaning of a gives b is a leads b by
so if a got x then b have x-80 and c have x-101 as total is 500 we get
the difference of b and c is 21, so b gives c by 21 points.

x+y+z=500
x-y=80
x-z=101
by solving this we will get y-z=21 to make equal point distribution between all
