B, C, D and E play a game of cards. A says to B, "If you give me three
cards, you will have as many as E has and if I give you three cards, you will
have as many as D has." A and B together have 10 cards more than what D

Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Clearly, we have :
B-3 = E ...(i)
B + 3 = D ...(ii)
A+B = D + E+10 ...(iii)
B = C + 2 ...(iv)
A+B + C + D + E= 133 ...(v)
From (i) and (ii), we have : 2 B = D + E
...(vi)
From (iii) and (vi), we have : A = B + 10
...(vii)
Using (iv), (vi) and (vii) in (v), we get:
