Question

I have a total of 45 chocolates with me that I need to pack into 10 boxes. I have to put at least 3 chocolates in each box.

What is the maximum number of boxes into which I can put 6 or more chocolates?

(A) 2 (B) 3
(C) 5 (D) 7

Answer 1

The answer is option(C) - 5

After putting a minimum of 3 chocolates in each box,I am left with 15 chocolates.

So,I take 3 chocolates at a time from the extras and put them in the box till I am left with none.Then I find that there are 5 such boxes which have 6 chocolates (previous 3 + current 3).
