Question

If a – b = 12and b over 2 = 10, what is the value of a + b ?

  1. 2
  2. 12
  3. 32
  4. 52

The correct answer is: 52


    HINT – Find the values of a and b
    SOLUTION – It is given that b over 2 = 10
    rightwards double arrowb  = 20
    Also,   a – b  =  12  rightwards double arrowa = 12 + b
    rightwards double arrowa = 12 + 20 = 32
    According to question,  a + b = 32 + 20 = 52
    Hence, option D is correct
