उत्तर
Given the artist can spend any amount between ₹ 80 to ₹ 200
Let the number of packets of brush he can buy be x
Given cost of 1 brush = ₹ 5
Cost of 1 packet brush (6 brushes) = ₹ 5 × 6 = ₹ 30
∴ Cost of x packets of brushes = 30x
∴ The inequation becomes 80 < 30x < 200
Dividing throughout by 30 we get `80/30` < `(30x)/30` < `200/30`
`8/3` < x < `20/5`,
`2 2/3` < x < `6 2/3`
brush packets cannot get in fractions.
∴ The artist can buy 3 < x < 6 packets of brushes,
or x = 3, 4, 5 and 6 packets of brushes.
