Question

The sum of twice a number and three times of 42 is 238. What is the sum of thrice the number and two times of 42 ?

Answer: Option C
Let the number be x
Then,
$$\eqalign{
& \Leftrightarrow 2x + 3 \times 42 = 238 \cr
& \Leftrightarrow 2x + 126 = 238 \cr
& \Leftrightarrow 2x = 112 \cr
& \Leftrightarrow x = 56 \cr} $$
∴ Required sum :
$$\eqalign{
& = 3x + 2 \times 42 \cr
& = 3 \times 56 + 2 \times 42 \cr
& = 168 + 84 \cr
& = 252 \cr} $$
