Rahul takes the novel from Sanjay, gives it to Joy for a magazine and gives Abeer the magazine for a novel. How many textbooks does Abeer have?

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 1 : 0

Calculation:

Abeer has 14 novels i.e Abeer = 14 novels

Abeer’s friend Sanjay takes 3 of them and gives 2 novels to Abeer, i.e Abeer = 13 novels left.

Abeer donates 7 novels but buys 4 it means Areeb has 10 novels left.

Joy takes 4 novels from Abeer and gives him 5 which means that Abeer has 11 novels left.

Abeer takes one novel from Sanjay and gives it to Joy in exchange for 3 more i.e Abeer = 14 novels.

Abeer gives those 3 novels to Sanjay and he gives Abeer a novel and a magazine, i.e Abeer = 12 novels and 1 magazine.

Rahul takes the magazine which Sanjay gave to Abeer and gives Abeer a textbook, i.e Abeer = 12 novels, and 1 textbook.

Abeer gives the textbook to Joy in exchange for a novel i.e Abeer = 13 novels.

Rahul takes the novel from Sanjay, gives it to Joy for a magazine, and gives Abeer the magazine for a novel, i.e Abeer = 1 magazine and 12 novels left.

Hence Abeer has 12 novels and 1 magazine and 0 textbooks.

Hence option 1 is correct.
