in a basketball game , dhoni scored 30 points more than dravid , but only half as many points as shewag . if the 3 players scored a combined total of 150 points , how many points did dhoni score ?	Pick one:  A) 50  B) 52  C) 35  D) 40  E) 45

Rationale: let dravid scored point = x then dhoni scored = x + 30 shewag scored = 2 * ( x + 30 ) = 2 x + 60 as given , x + x + 30 + 2 x + 60 = 150 points 4 x + 90 = 150 x = 150 - 90 / 4 = 15 so dhoni scored = x + 30 i . e ) 15 + 30 = 45 answer : e
Answer: E
