    Solution

    ATQ, Let the number of chocolates with ‘Rohan’, ‘Sohan’, and ‘Mohan’ be ‘x’, ‘y’, and ‘z’, respectively. Therefore, x + y = z + 20 ………(1) y + z = x + 10 ………(2) x + z = 50 ………(3) Add equations (1), (2), and (3): 2(x + y + z) = x + z + 80 Or, 2(x + y + z) = 50 + 80 Or, x + y + z = 130/2 = 65 Thus, the total number of chocolates with Rohan, Sohan, and Mohan together is 65.
