Number System
735 chocolates were distributed equally among children in such a way that the number of chocolates received by each child is 60% of the total number of children. How many chocolates did each child rec
Let the number of children be 'x' Therefore, each child will receiveX x 60/100 = 3x/5 chocolates∴ X x 3x/5 = 735∴ x² x 735x5/3 = 1225∴ x = 1225 = 35∴ Number of chocolates = 3x/5 = 21
S.P. per metre = 8200/40 = Rs. 205∴ C.P. per metre = Rs. (205 - 25) = Rs. 180∴ C.P. of 40 metre cloth= Rs. (40 x 180) = Rs. 7200∴ Gain = Rs. (8200 - 7200) = Rs. 1000
Let the digits be x and yTherefore, x + y = 12 .............(1)(10y + x) - (10x + y) Therefore, y - x = 4............. (2)Solving (1) and (2), y = 8 Therefore, x = 4There are two possible numbers 48 and 84. So the lowest no. is 48.
