Q. If a+3a is 4 less than 3b+b then what is average of a+b?
Read Solution (Total 5)
-
- a+3a=b+3b-4
or 4a+4=4b
or 4(a+1)=4b
or b=(a+1)
so average of (a+b)=(a+b)/2=(a+a+1)/2=(a+1/2) - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(13) No(0)
- a+3a+4=b+3b
4a+4=4b
a=1=b
for avvg:
(a+b)/2=(a+a+1)/2=a+1/2
- 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(0)
- a+3a-(3b+b)=4
4a+4b=4
a+b=1
Ans=1 - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(8)
- ans=1
a+3a+4=3b+b
4a+4=4b
so we get a=b=1 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- a+3a+3b+b=4 i.e a+b=1
So, a+b/2=1/2 - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
