Let Mr. Arun is on tour for x days. Then, According to the question, Difference in expenses per day for original and extended tour = 3 ⇒x(x+4) = 4×120=480 ⇒ x 2 + 4x – 480 = 0 ⇒ x 2 + 24x – 20x – 480 = 0 ⇒ x(x + 24) – 20(x + 24) = 0 ⇒ (x + 24) (x - 20) = 0 ∴ x = 20 (we ignore negative value of x, that is, - 24 because days cannot be negative) Hence, the required answer is 20,Related questions
