Answers
Answer:
no.of children is x
no.of chocolate is y
she distributed 5 chocolate to each
and 20 to adult
5x + 20 = y
5x + 20 = 145
5x = 145 -20
5x=125
x=125/5
x=25
no. of children is 25
Given:
On her birthday sonia distributed chocolates in an orphanage. She gave 5 chocolates to each child and 20 to adults.
To Find:
Taking number of children as x and total chocolates as y,
i) Form a linear equation.
ii) If she distributed 145 chocolates how many children are there in orphanage.
iii) Explain the valuue depicted here by sonia.
Solution:
i)We have,
No.of children = x
No.of chocolate = y
Sonia distributed 5 chocolate to each and 20 to adult. So
5x + 20 = y
ii)Sonia distributed 145 chocolates. So,
5x + 20 = 145
5x = 145 - 20
5x = 125
x = 125/5 = 25
iii) We should be kind towards one and another.
Hence, (i) the linear equation is 5x + 20 = y, (ii) there are 25 children in the orphanage and (iii) Sonia depicts the value of being helpful towards the society.
