Answer 2

Given:

A certain number of sweets are distributed among 28 children such that each student gets 6 sweets.

To Find:

The total number of sweets each would get if the total number of students is reduced by 4.

Solution:

1. Initially each student got 6 sweets for each of the 28 students.

2. The total number of sweets distributed are,

=> Total number of sweets distributed = 28 x 6,

=> Total number of sweets distributed = 168 sweets.

3. The number of students is reduced by 4,

=> Total number of students now = 28 - 4,

=> Total number of students now = 24.

4. 168 sweets are now distributed among 24 students,

=> Hence, each student will get a total of 168/24 sweets,

=> The total Sweets received by each student = (24x7)/7,

=> The total Sweets received by each student = 7.

Therefore, each student gets a total of 7 sweets.
