  1. Answer:

    Runs scored by Ranjith = 49

    Runs scored by Aditi = 147

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let x be the runs scored by Ranjith and 3x be the runs scored by Aditi.

    Total runs = 200-4

    = 196

    = x + 3x = 196

    = 4x = 196

    = x = 196/4

    = x = 49

    3x = 3×49

    = 147

    Therefore, the runs scored by Ranjith is 49 and Aditi is 147

    Hope it helps!!
