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?
Read Solution (Total 2)
-
- 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... - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(2)
- 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
