  1. The difference between two number is 18 if four times the second number is less then three what is the sum these two number?
    1. 100
    2. 80
    3. 86
    4. 92
Correct Option: D

Let first number = P
And second number = Q
According to the question
P - Q = 10 ....(i)
And 3P - 4Q = 18...(ii)

on multiply eq (i) by 3 and then subtract eq (ii) from it
3P - 3Q = 54
3P - 4Q = 18
Q = 36

On putting the value of Q in the eq (i)
P = 18 + Q = 18 +36
⇒ P = 54
Required sum = P + Q = 54 +36 =90
