The equation is:x-12 = x/3After solving we get:x = 18

RE: X no of bullets are shared by 3 people equa...
S.P1-S.P2=80  and we know sp=cp((100+profit%)/100) and sp=cp((100-loss%)/100)
so,
x(11/10)- x(9/10)=80
x(2/10)=80
x=800/2
x=400

integral        

RE: X no of bullets are shared by 3 people equa...

I think that 18 is right answer.

 total value : x

 value which three man is fired : 3*4 = 12

 initially division value : x/3

 remainder : x-12

 x-12 = x/3,  3x-36=x

so 18 is answer.
