Aruna cut a cake into two halves and cuts one half into smaller pieces of equal size. Each of the small pieces is twenty grams in weight. If she has seven pieces of the cake in all with her, how heavy was the original cake ?

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Let the number of bananas in the second bunch be x.
Then, the number of bananas in the first bunch
= x + 1/4 x
= 5/4 x
So,
5/4 x - x = 3
=> 5x - 4x = 12
x = 12

Number of bananas in first bunch
= 5/4 * 12 = 15
