Question

Maya bought 8kg of sweets and distributed 1/4 kg of sweets to each of her freinds .How many friends were there ?

Answer 1

$\underline{\bold{Solution:-}}$

Maya brought sweet = 8 kg

She distributed 1/4 kg of sweet to each of her friend equally.

Amount of sweet distributed to each friend = 1/4 kg

Number of friends were there

$= \frac{Maya \: brought \: sweet}{Sweet \: distributed \: to \: each \: friend } \\ \\ = \frac{8}{ \frac{1}{4} } \\ \\ = 8 \times 4 \\ \\ = 32$

So, there were 32 friends of Maya.
