college parking place have only 4wheelers & bicycles,total no of wheels was 182,yhen what is the possible no of bicycles?

a)20 b 19 c 18 d 17

• b and d are correct options. 19 bicycles means 38 wheels
  182-38=144
  144 is divisible by 4
  similarly in the case of option d . 17 bicycles means 34 wheels
  182-34=148
  148 is divisible by 4

• Let X be the possible number of bicycles & Y be possible number of 4whilers
  Then
  2X+4Y=182
  If we put X=19 y=36
  If we put X=17 Y=37
  So x=19 & x=17 are possible answers

• There can not be multiple ans..
  Data is not sufficient.. Actually along with total no of wheels total no of vehicles also should be given..

• ans. 17
  17 bicycle =34 tyres. now the remaining tyres are 182-34=148. since 148 is divisible by 4 , so the no. of cars is 148/4 = 37.

• b:19 if there are 19 bicycle then,no.of wheels are 38 and total no.of wheels are 182 then 182-38=144,that there are 26 4 wheelers and 19 bicycle.

• b:19 if there are 19 bicycle then,no.of wheels are 38 and total no.of wheels are 182 then 182-38=144,that there are 26 4 wheelers and 19 bicycle.

• 19 bicycles having 38 wheels. 182-38=144 which is divisible by 4
  ans b)19

• there are 2 answers as both b nd satisfy d condition
• 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(1)
• ans b & d simple just solve by the options 182-(20*2)=140. 140/4 4 refers the wheelers then it is not but both the answers satisfy here

• ans is d.......

• for these solutions hit and trial is gud....

• for these type of questions just go through the options.
  if no of cycles is 20=20*2=40wheels;remaining wheels 142/4=12*(22/4)..not possible
  now take 19=19*2=38;remaining wheels 144/4=36(which is possible)
  if u try for remaining cases it's not possible .hence ans is 19

• Either 19/17
  going by the question 4x+2y=182
  
  and solving by eqns, which satisfies are both 19 and 17 so these two are the answers

• in this type of que 1st subtract options one by one and then divide it by 4....
  which of the option gives an integer value is the correct ans
  (182-18)/4 gives an int value
  other option do not give int value so
  ans:18

• I have also seen these type of question where no, of vehicle is not provided. only total no. of wheels is given. atq, possible number of bicycles is asking so we need to go through options and solve it by hit and trial method, as given possible no. bicycle, so we need to give max number of bicycle that can place there, they are not asking for exact number of bicycle, so 19 is the correct option. 19*2=38
  182-38=144 which is divided by 4. so 19 is the correct option

• 4x+2y=182
  putting values from options
  ans can be 19,17
• 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
• Chose from options
  182- (19*2) =144 which is divisible by 4 so ans is 19
