    have, then I will have Rs 110 and if I give you half of my money then you will have Rs 100." How much money do A and B have respectively?
    A Rs 60, Rs 80 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Rs 80, Rs 70 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs 80, Rs 60 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs 90, Rs 60 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Rs 80, Rs 50 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the amount of money with A and B be Rs a and Rs b respectively.
    Hence according to the 1st condition, a + b/2 = 110 .. (1)
    Similarly, b + a/2 = 100... (2)
    Solving Equation (1) and (2) we get,
    a = 80 and b = 60
