Sachin, Dravid and Ganguly played in a Cricket match between
India and England.
? None of them scored more than 99 runs.
? If you add the digits of the runs scored by Sachin to his
own score, you will get the runs scored by Dravid.
? If you reverse the digits of the runs scored by Dravid,
you will get the runs scored by Ganguly.
? The total runs scored by them is 240.
Can you figure out their individual scores?

Answer / rajesh
we can solve this wid equations
let sachin = xy = 10*x + y
dravid = mn= 10*m + n
ganguly = nm = 10*n +m
nw 10*(x+m+n) + (y+m+n) = 240 ....(1)
since the unit place of the sum is zero
y+m+n must be multiple of 10
even if its 9+9+9 its 27 so it has to 10 or 20 probabilty
of 20 is more
y+m+n=20
substitute in (1)
we get x+m+n=22
therefore
x-y=2
nw the possible combination fr sachins score
is
31, 42, 53, 64, 75, 86, 97
use it 31 the total sum would be very less
approx. around middle value we get
sachin = 75
dravid = 87
ganguly = 78

Answer / venugopal
sachin-75
dravid-78
ganguly-87
dravid score=75+3
because sachin scored 75
7+5=12
1+2=3
ganguly scored is reverse of dravid
87
75+78+87=240

Answer / hemant joshi
.Sachin's score must be less than 86, otherwise Dravid's
score would be more than 99. Also, he must have scored
atleast 42 - incase Dravid and Ganguly scored 99 each.
Also, as none of them scored more than 99 and the total runs
scored by them is 240,their individual scores must be around 80.

Answer / guest
Sachin, Dravid and Ganguly scored 75, 87 and 78 respectively.
Sachin's score must be less than 86, otherwise Dravid's
score would be more than 99. Also, he must have scored
atleast 42 - incase Dravid and Ganguly scored 99 each.
Also, as none of them scored more than 99 and the total runs
scored by them is 240; their individual scores must be
around 80.
Now, use trial-n-error method to solve the teaser.

Substitute digits for the letters to make the following Division true Y F Y ----------- A Y | N E L L Y | N L Y ---------------- P P L P N H ---------- N L Y N L Y ---------- 0 0 0 Note that the leftmost letter can't be zero in any word. Also, there must be a one-to-one mapping between digits and letters. e.g. if you substitute 3 for the letter N, no other letter can be 3 and all other N in the puzzle must be 3.
