A person on has your has birr 360 for his daily expenses. If he extends his tour for 4 days, he has to cut down his daily expense by birr 3. Find the original duration of the tour
Trying to make sense out of your terrible posting ...
I conclude somebody is on a trip of n days, and plans to spend 360 a day
so the total would be 360n
with 4 extra days, the daily expenses would drop to 357
so 360n = 357(n+4) , assuming that the total for the trip would stay the same
360n = 357n + 1428
3n = 1428
n = 476 days ??? , nice trip
check:
total expenses for original trip = 476*360 = 171360
extended trip cost = 480*357 = 171360
looks like my answer is correct using my interpretation of your meddled-up

A person on has your has birr 360 for his daily expenses. If he extends his tour for 4 days, he has to cut down his daily expense by birr 3. Find the original duration of the tour
To solve this problem, let's break it down into steps:
Step 1: Let's assume the original duration of the tour is "x" days.
Step 2: The person has a daily expense of birr 360, so the total expense for x days would be 360x birr.
Step 3: If the person extends the tour for 4 days, the new duration of the tour would be "x + 4" days.
Step 4: Since the person has to cut down his daily expense by birr 3, the new daily expense would be 360 - 3 = birr 357.
Step 5: The total expense for the extended tour would be (x + 4) * 357 birr.
Step 6: According to the problem, the total expense for the extended tour is the same as the original expense: 360x birr.
Step 7: We can now set up an equation to solve for x:
360x = (x + 4) * 357
Solving this equation will give us the original duration of the tour, which is x.
Let's solve the equation:
360x = 357x + 4 * 357
3x = 4 * 357
3x = 1428
x = 1428 / 3
x = 476
Therefore, the original duration of the tour is 476 days.
