Maths Puzzles With Answers #39

Solution:-

Let  'x'  be the number of kilograms he sold in the morning.

Then in the afternoon he sold 2x kilograms. 

So, the total is  x+2x=3x. This must be equal to 360.

3x=360

x=3603

x=120

Therefore, the salesman sold 120 kg in the morning and 2x${\displaystyle }$120=240 kg in the afternoon.

x+2x=3x
