1 child = 50 sweets each
24 children = 50×24/1 = 1200 sweets
So the total sweets are 1200
Children are reduced by 4
24-4 = 20 children
As we know total sweets are 1200 and total children are 20
20 children will get 1200 sweets
1 child will get 1200/20 = 60 sweets each
Therefore each child will get 60 sweets each if children are reduced by 4
