Question : 23 of 40

Marks: +1, -0

At a game of billiards A can give B 6 points in 50 and he can give C 13 points in 65, how many points can B give C in a game of 55?

Solution:

since A scores 50 while B 44
∴ A scores 65 while B

{44}/{50} × 65

= 57.2 points
Now, B scores 57.2 points while C 52
∴ B scores 55 points while C =

{52}/{57.2} × 55

= 50
Hence, in game of 55 points B can give C (55 – 50) = 5 points
