In a basket there are 1250 flowers.A man goes for worship and offers as many as flowers as there are temples in the city.Thus he needs 8 baskets of flowers.Find the number of temples in the city.

Answer 1

Let no. of temples = x
Therefore at each temple he offers 'x' flowers
Therefore in total, he offers x * x flowers in the whole city.
But it is given that he needed only 8 baskets, where each basket has 1250 flowers.
Therefore we form the equation.
X*X = 8 × 1250
X^2 = 10000
X = 100

Therefore no. of temples or the answer is
