sibarama Profile Answers by sibarama Jun 19th, 2008 ans=60 Explanation:-Let no of benches=x600/x=(600/(x-10))-2equating Thiswe get 2x^2-20x-6000=0 =>x=60 or -50hense x=60(no of benches)
SAUREEN ADANI Profile Answers by SAUREEN ADANI Jun 10th, 2010 10*60=60012*50=600it means per bench 10 student requirs 60 benches.but 10 are less so that on 50 benches to accomodate 12 per bench. it means 2 more to be seated on each bench. so the answer is 60.

ans is 60 benches
let x=no of benches
y=no of students per bench
given
x*y=600,---------(1)
and given that 10 benches are less hence 2 students are seated more than per bench then
600=(x-10)*(y+2)
600=xy+2x-10y-20------------(2)
since xy=600
then eq(2) is
2x-10y=20
2x-10(600/x)=20
on solving
we get x=60
