7 boxes & 24 Balls.
Let, n = No. of boxes ; m = No. of fruits
3n+3 = m---------->(1)
4(n-1)= m---------->(2)
=>4n-4 = 3n+3;
=>4n-3n = 4+3
n = 7
Put n=7 in eqn(1)
=> 3(7)+3 = m
21+3 = m
m = 24;

Number of boxes = 7 and fruits = 24

Q:

The length and the breadth of rectangular field are in the ratio of 8 : 7. If charges of the painting the boundary of rectangle is at Rs. 10 per meter is Rs. 3000. What is the area of rectangular plot?

A) 5600 sq.m B) 1400 sq. m
C) 4400 sq.m D) 3600 sq.m
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 5600 sq.m

Explanation:

Perimeter of the rectangle is given by 3000/10 = 300 mts

But we know,

The Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(l + b)

Now,

2(8x + 7x) = 300

30x = 300

x = 10

Required, Area of rectangle = 8x x 7x = 56 x 100 = 5600 sq. mts.
