Let the marks of Devi be x and Ali be y.
So, the equations:
2y = x <em>and</em> y + 16 = x
So,
2y = y + 16. [ because we know equals are equal to equals]
=> 2y - y = 16
=> y = 16
Check
Ali's marks are half of Devi's marks.
Devi's marks are 16 more than alis.
So, Devi's marks will be 16×2 = 32 and 32 is 16 greater than 16 (16+16=32).
If we have 2 more blue pens than black pens, our blue pens can be rewritten as blue = 2 + black. Now we can set up an equation. Originally this equation would involve both blue and black, but since we only have 1 equation to set up, we can only have 1 unknown. That's why we base the number of blue pens on the number of black pens and do a substitution. So instead of blue + black = 94, we have (black + 2) + black = 94. That simplifies to 2 black + 2 = 94, and 2 black = 92. Now if we divide by 2, we get that the number of black pens is 46. If we have 2 more blue than black, the number of blue pens we have is 48. 46 + 48 = 94, so there you go!

The common ratio of 2, 10/3, 50/9 is 
<u>Solution:</u>
Given, series of elements are 
We have to find the common ratio of the above given series.
We know that, common ratio of an G.P is division of any number in that series with the previous number of the series.
So, now take
and 2


Hence, the common ratio of the given series is
