Solution

Let's solve this step by step:

  1. Let's assume the number of days Ravi did his chores exceptionally well as 'x'. So, the number of days he did his chores normally would be '10 - x'.

  2. According to the problem, Ravi gets Rs. 5 for doing chores exceptionally well and Rs. 3 for doing them normally. So, the total amount he received can be represented as: 5x + 3(10 - x) = 36.

  3. Simplifying the equation gives: 5x + 30 - 3x = 36, which simplifies further to 2x = 6.

  4. Solving for 'x' gives x = 3.

So, Ravi did his chores exceptionally well for 3 days. Therefore, the correct answer is:

radio_button_unchecked 4

radio_button_unchecked 5

radio_button_unchecked 6
