1.  First bunch of bananas has (1/4) again as many bananas as a second bunch. If the second bunch has 3 bananas less than the first bunch, then the number of bananas in the first bunch are

A. 9
B. 10
C. 12
D. 15

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Let the number of bananas in the second bunch be x.

Then, the number of bananas in the first bunch

= x + 1/4 x

= 5/4 x

So,

5/4 x - x = 3

=> 5x - 4x = 12

x = 12


Number of bananas in first bunch

= 5/4 * 12 = 15
