Answer:
The answer is Option a) 24
Explanation:
imagine that each of them picked a different amount of oranges. A female can pick at least 0 oranges, and each pupil picks a different quantity of oranges.
- Therefore, the total amount of oranges picked should be fewer than 100. However, 0+1+2.....+19+20 = 210>200 contradicts itself.
- Because of this, there are two girls who picked the same quantity of oranges. If this is the case, there are two girls who each picked the same quantity of oranges.
- Thus, out of the remaining 18 students, a different quantity of oranges were picked by each girl. amount of oranges Plucking by 18 students results in 153 oranges (0+1+2+3...+17). 200 - 153 = 47 is the number of oranges that the two remaining students picked.
- The equal number of oranges were picked by both students. As a result, 47/2=24 oranges were plucked by one of them.
