It's quite hard but try and attempt it... Some birds were flying and met a bird on their way. The bird greeted them; hello hundred! They said we are not hundred, we need half of us plus you to make us hundred. Question: How many birds were flying?``` |

Let the no of birds flying be x
So half of the birds flying = x÷2
a bird flying = 1
therefore 1 + x + x÷2 = 100
taking the LCM
2 + 3x= 200
3x = 200 - 2
3x = 198
x = 198/3
x = 66.
There are 66 birds flying.
Now Cross check 66 + 33. + 1 = 100. Simple Mathematics. Religionisbad was here. |
