Mr Chua has a class of less than 40 pupils. He gave all the pupils in his class some jellybeans. If he gave 5 jellybeans to each pupil, he would have 2 jellybeans left. If he gave 4 jellybeans to each pupil, he would have 38 jellybeans left.
(a) How many pupils were there in his class?

Thank you very much. -
2) Ramesh and Dominic shared a total sum of $510. After Ramesh spent 2/3 of his money and Dominic spent 1/4 of his money, Dominic had twice as much money left as Ramesh. Find the amount of money Ramesh had at first?
D at first have 8u
spent 1/4 ; left 6u
R is left with half of D ie… 3u
R at first have 9u
At first
D=8u
R=9u
total = 17u =510
u = 30
D=8x30=240
R=9x30 =270
[uuuuuu] ; [uu] => Dominic 8 units spent 2 units left 6 units
[uuu] ; [uuuuuu] => Ramesh 9 units spent 6 units left 3units -

(a) How many pupils were there in his class?
(b) How many jellybeans did Mr Chua have?
he gave 4 jellybeans to each pupil, he would have 38 jellybeans left.
this 38 leftover can still be distributed to the class and there will be 2 left over
38-2=36 pupils.
jellybeans = 36 x 5 + 2 = 180 + 2 = 182
check 36 x 4 = 144
182 - 144 = 38 correct -
