Question

In a soap company a soap is manufactured with 11 parts. For making one soap you will get 1 part as scrap. At the end of the day u have 251 such scraps. From that how many soaps can be manufactured?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The 251 scraps will be used to make 22 soaps with remaining 9 scraps.

i,e 251 =22 ×11 + 9

Again these  22 soaps will produce 22 scraps.

So total of 22+9=31 scraps ,which again  makes 2 soaps with remaining 9 scraps.

i,e 31 = 2 ×11 + 9

Again the 2 soaps will produce 2 scraps. so we have (2+9) ,i,e 11 scraps which can be used to make 1 soap with 1 scrap as remaining.

Therefore in total no of  soaps =22+2+1=25

Answer 2

Answer:

22.8 soaps

Step-by-step explanation:

Because one soap is made with 11 parts

so total numbers of part you have is 251

then , total numbers of soap formed = 251/11

= 22.818
