on the foundation day of school sweets are distributed among 180 children equally,however on that day 45 children are absent and therefore each child got 4 sweets extra. total how many sweets are distributed among them?

• 2160
  
  When there are 180 children, let each child get 'x' sweets, then total sweets=180x
  When there are (180-45) or 135 children, then each child get (x+4) sweets
  As quantity of sweets in both the above case is same, 180x = 135(x+4)
  => 180x = 135x+540
  => 45x=540 or x=12
  So total number of sweets=180x=180*12=2160
