repairs to the Club will come to a total of Rs 3120 and I

paying an equal amount."
The proposal was immediately agreed. However, four members
of the Club chose to resign, leaving the remaining members
to pay an extra Rs 26 each.

Answer / guest
The Club originally had 24 members.
Assume that there were initially N members.
As 4 members resigned and remaining members paid Rs 26 each,
it means that total amount of 4 members is equal to Rs 26
each from remaining (N-4) members. Thus,
4 * (3120 / N) = 26 * (N - 4)
12480 = 26N2 - 104N
26N2 - 104N - 12480 = 0
Solving the quadratic equation we get N=24.
Hence, the Club originally had 24 members.

Answer / windflower
let the number of club members be N
Then each member will have to pay 3120/N
4 members resigned and therefore each member should pay an extra of rs.26
thus (3120/N +26)(N-4)=3120
if you simplify further, you will get N=24

Answer / vignesh
IN each of the (N-4) pays rs 26,
thn,, 26*(N-4)=3120
N=124..(total members)..
the above solutions does not give
3120/20 is not equal to 26
bt....3120/20 gives 26..
