    On children?s day, sweets were to be equally distributed among 160 children in a school. Actually on the children's day 40 children were absent and therefore each child got 10 sweets extra. Total number of sweets were

    A)  3200                           

    B)  2400          

    C)  4000                           

    D)  4800

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    (d): Let total sweets be 'n? Students were supplied to get 'x' sweets \[160x=n\] But actually \[120\left( x+10 \right)=n\] \[\Rightarrow \frac{120}{160}n=\frac{3}{4}n\] \[\Rightarrow \frac{3n}{4}+1200=n\] \[n=4800.\]
