Asim got thrice as many sums wrong as he got right. If he attempted 60 sums in all, how many sums did he solve correctly?
Show Hint
- 25
- 12
- 20
- 10
15
The Correct Option is
Solution and Explanation
Then the number of sums he solved incorrectly is \( 3x \).
We are given that the total number of sums attempted is 60.
Thus: \[ x + 3x = 60 \] \[ 4x = 60 \quad \Rightarrow \quad x = 15 \] Therefore, Asim solved 15 sums correctly.
