Detailed Solution

Given a statement that Irfan says that he has 7 marbles more than five times the marbles Parmit has. Irfan has 37 marbles.
Let us assume the number of permit’s marbles = m.
Now, if Irfan has 7 marbles more than 5 times permit marble, then, number of marbles Irfan have = 5m + 7.
But it is given that Irfan has 37 marbles, so equate it with the obtained equation.
5m + 7 = 37
Hence, option 3 is correct.
