Question

У Сергійка було на 3 яблука більше ,ніж у Сашка. Коли кожен іх них з*їв по 2 яблука , у Сергійка залишилось у 4 рази більше яблук. Скільки яблук було у кожного спочатку?

Answer 1

Х - було у Сашка
х + 3 - було у Сергійка

4(х - 2) = (х+3) - 2
4х - 8 = х + 3 - 2
4х - х = 3 - 2 + 8
3х = 9
х = 3 - було у Сашка

3 + 3 = 6 - було у Сергійка

Answer 2

Solution:

Let's solve this problem step by step.

1. Let's assume the number of apples Sasha had initially is x. 2. According to the given information, Sergey had 3 more apples than Sasha, so Sergey had x + 3 apples initially. 3. After each of them ate 2 apples, Sergey had 4 times more apples left than Sasha.

Now, we can form the equation based on the given information.

Equation:

x + 3 - 2 = 4 * (x - 2)

Let's solve this equation to find the initial number of apples for each person.

Solving the Equation:

x + 1 = 4x - 8 1 + 8 = 4x - x 9 = 3x x = 3

So, Sasha initially had 3 apples, and Sergey initially had 6 apples.

Therefore, initially, Sasha had 3 apples, and Sergey had 6 apples.

This solution is based on the given information and the equation formed from it.
