Silu and Meenu were walking on the road.Silu said, “I weight 51 Kgs. How much do you weight?†Meenu replied that she wouldn’t reveal her weight directly as she is overweight. But she said, “I weight 29 Kgs plus half of my weight†. How much does Meenu weight??

• let meenu's age be x. therefore atq
  
  1/2(x) + 29 = x
  on solving this linear eqn in 1 variable we get x=58 kg

• 58
  29+x/2=x
  x=58

• wt of x=51,
  wt of y=?,
  meenu said;
  x=29+y/2
  or, 51=29+y/2
  so, y=44kg.Ans.
