Correct Answer: 4
Solution : Given: $4x+5y=83$ and $3x:2y=21:22$ In comparison, find the values of $x$ and $y$ respectively. $3x = 21k$, $2y=22k$ So, the value of $x=7k$ and $y=11k$ respectively. Now, $4×7k+5×11k=83$ ⇒ $k=1$ The value of the expression $(y-x)$ is given as, $(11k-7k)=4k = 4$ Hence, the correct answer is 4.
