@paridhi11890 said:But we need 3 rappers to get one more right?It is coming to be that he will be left with 2 rappers in the end..Please write how u reached that answer
@ankittripathi said:Don't get confused. he borrowed one toffee, now he has 3 wrappers, now he will give that 3 wrappers for the toffee he borrowed. So, the maximum number of toffees he can get is 45.
@DivineSeeker said:a shopkeeper sells 3 toffees for rupee 1 and also gives an extra toffee if u return him 3 wrappers then what is the max no. of toffees u can buy if u have 10 RS a simple one but ambiguous plz puys!!!!!!!!! give a min to this question. thanks.
@paridhi11890 said:The point is you cannot assume the borrowing stuff unless it is explicitly mentioned in the question.. in the absence of it.. we will have to treat it that he cannot borrow anything..
@ankittripathi said:See, the question asks " the maximum number of toffees he can buy ". so, our aim should be towards maximising the number of toffees.
What is the OA? We shall debate further.. depending on the answer.. 😛
@paridhi11890 said:Yeah but if u really get this borrowing funda in between.. why will he borrow 1? he can borrow as many as he wishes and then go on adjusting it with the rappers.. The thing is that the Rs. 10 given in the ques then becomes meaningless.. and so does whole of the question and the point of asking it..
@ankittripathi said:No, after this he willnot be able to manage things by borrowing. If he borrows three more toffees, he will have three wrappers. So, he can only pay for one toffee, and what abt other two. If u say that he can borrow few more toffees, than it will only increase the burden. he don't have any other source for paying it.
@mailtoankit said:44 toffees ?in 1 re ----> 3 toffeesso in 10 rs ---> 30 toffeesnow for 3 wrappers ---> 1 toffeesso for 30 wrappers ---> 10 toffeestotal = 40with 10 extra toffees = 3 toffees + 1 wrappertotal 43 toffeesfrom 3 toffees = 1 toffees + 1 wrapperso total 44 toffees
although it is ambiguous..:P
@DivineSeeker said:@mailtoankit 10 extra toffees = 3 toffees + 1 wrappertotal 43 toffees from 3 toffees = 1 toffees + 1 wrapper 2 wrappersso total 44 toffees + 2 wrappers. nw he could borrow one to complete the 3 wrappers nd could return it to get the one toffee which he would give back to the shopkeeper as he had earlier borrowed. so he has nw 45 toffees with no wrappers left.
@DivineSeeker said:@ankittripathi 45 , i guess
@DivineSeeker said:a shopkeeper sells 3 toffees for rupee 1 and also gives an extra toffee if u return him 3 wrappers then what is the max no. of toffees u can buy if u have 10 RS a simple one but want to confirm... is it 40??? plz puys!!!!!!!!! give a min to this question. thanks.

@paridhi11890 said:Koi uss bande ko tag karo jisne ye ques post kiya hai he seems to be enjoying the ongoing controversy.. Let him/her declare the final OA and then we shall rest in peace..
