Answer 1

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 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?

To make 22 soaps, 251 scraps will be used. The remaining scraps will be 9. Once again repeating the process 22 soaps will give 22 scraps.

Now 22 + 9 = 31 scraps, can make 2 soaps with remaining 9 scraps. Again 2 soaps will give 2 scraps. Finally 11 scraps can be used to make 1 soap with 1 scrap. Now total soaps that can be made is 22 + 2 + 1 = 25 soaps.
