Three jackals Paar, Marr and Taar together have 675 loaves of bread. Paar has got three times as much as Maar but 25 loaves more than Taar. How many does Taar have?
(1) 175
(2) 275
(3) 375
(4) None of these

• Ans:2)275
  Suppose T=x;
  P=25+x;
  M=25+x/3;
  So,P+M+T=675
  (25+x)+(25+x/3)+x=675
  x=275

• (2)275
  let eqn be
  P+1/3p+p-25=675
  2p+1/3p=700
  7p/3=700
  p=300
  so
  taar=p-25
  300-25=275

• 2p=m;
  p=t+25;
  t=p-25;
  
  p+2p+p-25=675;
  4p-25=675;
  4p=700;
  p=700/4;
  p=175;
  
  that. is....
  t=p-25;
  t=175-25;
  t=150;
  ans non of this

• Take M=x,
  P=3x
  T=3x-25
  M+P+T=7x-25=625
  x=100 => T=275
• 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(3)
• let M= x
  P= 3x
  T= 3x-25
  x + 3x + 3x - 25= 675
  x=254(approx)
  So ans : 4) None of these

• Let P represent Paar, M represent Maar and T represent Taar
  Given P+M+R=675
  Also P=3M and P=T+25. Equating these two equations, we get M=(T+25)/3
  Put the values of P and M in the initial equation, T=275
  Hence, Taar have 275 loaves of bread.

• answer is (2) 275.
  equations are:-
  P=3*M
  P=25+T
  solving above two equations, answer is 275.

• let M=x
  P=3x
  T=3x-25
  x+3X+3X-25=675
  x=100
  t=3*100-25=275
