Q36. Read the text carefully and answer the questions:

Peter, Kevin James, Reeta and Veena were students of Class 9th B at Govt Sr Sec School,
Sector 5, Gurgaon. Once the teacher told Peter to think a number x and to Kevin to think
another number y so that the difference of the numbers is 10 (x > y). Now the teacher asked
James to add double of Peter's number and that three times of Kevin's number, the total was
found 120.
