Question
The ratio of number of balls in bag A and bag B is 6:8
respectively. If six balls are transferred from bag B to bag A, then number of balls are equal in each bag. Find the number of balls in bag B initially?Solution
Let number of balls in bag A be 6x and in bag B be 8x.  As per the question,  8x - 6 = 6x + 6  ⇒ 8x - 6x = 6 + 6  ⇒x = 6   No. of ball in bag B = 8x = 8 × 6 = 48 balls
