On a particular day, sweets were to be equally distributed among 960 students of
a school. However, on that particular day, 360 students remained absent. Hence
each student present on that day got three sweets extra. Had all 960 students
remained present that day, how many sweets would each student have got?

• let
  everyone gets x sweets when all 960 students are present
  total no of sweets are y
  
  according to question
  960*x=y and (960-360)(x+3)=y
  so, no of sweets are same
  
  600(x+3)=960x
  x=5 ans...

• let student gets x no of sweets
  
  total no of students = 960
  
  360 absent on the particular day so the the student present on the day is
  960-360 = 600
  
  each student present on that day got three sweets extra so 600 student got
  1800(600 * 3 )
  
  so equation will be 960x-600x=1800
  solving we get x=5
