Question -

Solve the following riddle:
I am a number,
Tell my identity!
Take me seven times over
And add a fifty!
To reach a triple century
You still need forty!



Answer -

Supposemy identity number is x.
Step I: 7 + 50
Step II: 7x + 50 + 40 = 300
or 7x + 90 = 300
Solving the equation, we have
7x + 90 = 300
7x =300 – 90 (Transforming 90 to RHS)
7x =210
 7x/7=210/7 (Dividingboth sides by 7)
x = 30
Thus, my identity is 30.
