Q)

The sum of twice of a number and thrice of 42 is 238. What will be the sum of thrice of that number and twice of 42?

[Syndicate Bank (PO) , 2009]

    • Explanation

    Let the number be 'x'

    Then, (2×x)+(3×42)=238 

    or 2x=238-126

    ⇒ 2x=112

    ⇒ x=56

    Now, (3×56)+(2×42)

    =168+84=252.

    Hence, Option D is correct.
