In a basketball game, Dhoni scored 15 points more than Dravid, but only half as many points as Shewag. If the three players scored a combined total of 77 points, how many points did Dhoni score? Choose the correct answer:
A) 23
B) 33
C) 25
D) 28
E) 32
Let Dravid scored point = x   Then Dhoni Scored = x+15   Shewag Scored = 2*(x+15) = 2x+30   23s given, x+x+15+2x+30 = 77 points   4x+45 = 77   x = 77-45/4 = 8   So Dhoni Scored = x +15 i.e) 8+15 = 23   23nswer : 23
