  1. 380 mangoes are distributed among some boys and girls who are 85 in number. Each boy gets four mangoes and each girl gets five. The number of boys is
    1. 15
    2. 38
    3. 40
    4. 45
Correct Option: D

Let number of boys = x
and number of girls = 85 – x
According to the question,
x × 4 + (85 – x ) × 5 = 380
⇒  4x + 425 – 5x = 380
⇒  x = 45
