Question

A man distributed 236 toffees to children such that each child get as many toffees as there were children. Find the no. of children, if 11 toffees were left out after the distribution.

Answer 1

15 each to every child there

Answer 2

Given total number of toffees distributed = 236.

Number of children's left out = 11.

Number of children's left in = 236 - 11

= 225.

Given that Each child get as many toffees as there were children.

$= > \sqrt{225}$

$= > \sqrt{15^2}$

$= > 15.$

Therefore, the number of children = 15.

Hope this helps!
