Question

A coconut trader has 3 sacks each with a capacity of carrying 10 coconuts. He wishes to sell them in the market. He will encounter 10 toll plazas on his way to the market. He has to give one coconut from each sack he is carrying at every toll plaza. What is the maximum number of coconuts he can eventually sell in the market?

Answer 1

Number of sacks-3

Each sack has coconut-10

Total number of coconut-3*10=30

At each plaza he will sell one coconut from each sack,means at each toll plaza he will sell 3

total number of toll plaza-10

he will sell=3*10=30

He will sell in the market- 30-30=0
