Question

Rajan has 66 candies. He gives 5/11 to Aadharsh. So _____ many candies are left

with Rajan.​

Answer 1

Given,

Rajan has 66 candies in total.

He gave 5/11 of his candies to Aadharsh.

To find,

Remaining number of candies.

Solution,

First of all, we have to calculate the total number of candies that Rajan gave to Aadharsh.

Total number of given candies = 66 × 5/11 = 30

Now, we have to calculate the number of remaining candies by the help of the following mathematical formula.

Remaining candies = Total candies - Given candies

Remaining candies = 66-30 = 36

Hence, 36 candies were remaining.

Answer 2

$Number \: of \: Total \: candies \: Rajan \: have = 66$

$Number \: of \:candies \: Aadharsh \: received \\ = \frac{5}{11} \: of \: total \: candies \\= \frac{5}{11} \times 66\\= 5 \times 6 \\= 30$

$\red{ Number \: of \: candies \: left \: with \: Rajan }$

$= Total \: candies - Number \: of \: candies \: Aadharsh \: received \\= 66 - 30 \\= 36$

Therefore.,

$\red{ Number \: of \: candies \: left \: with \: Rajan }$

$\green { = 36}$
