Answer / chris again

Wrong again: Answer is 95.

If there are x damaged glasses and y undamaged glasses then

x + y = 100

since each glass delivered undamaged is worth 3 points and
each damaged glass deducts 3 points:

and we know that the net result is 90 glasses worth of
points then:

x - y = 90 -----> x = 90 + y

(90 + y) + y = 100

2*y = 10 ---> y = 5

so if number of damaged glasses was 5 then undamaged must
be 100 - 5 = 95

Answer / prateek sahgal

while supplying 90 safe glasses he got 270 paise but what
abt the loss because he has loose 3 paise for unsafe
glasses so
suppose x is the number for safely reaching glasses
so for damage glasses
(100-x)
complete eq is 3x-3(100-x)=270
solving this we get 95 which is the answer

Answer / grandvazir

well let x be no of not broken glasses and y be no of broken glasses
therefore

x+y=100.....(1)

now he get 3 paise for every not broken glass and he loses 3 paise for every broken one

so 3x paise he will get for total no of not broken glasses

and he will lose 3y paise for broken glasses

so the eqn is

3x-3y=100.....(2)

thus solving the eqns (1) and (2)
we get

x=95 and y=5

so 95 glasses are supplied safely
