Question

There were 400 sweets in a pack. The principal of a school bought 25 such packs of sweets for 2000 children o Children's Day. If each child was given 7 sweets, how many more packs of sweets were needed?

Answer 1

Explanation:

400 sweets in a pack * 25 packs = 10,000 sweets

2000 kids * 7 sweets = 14,000

We need 4,000 more sweets. That would be 10 packs more since there are 400 sweets in a pack.

Answer 2

10 more packs

Explanation:

400 sweets bought 25 such packs = 400*25=10000

2000 each one gets 7 = 2000*7=14000

14000-10000=4000

4000/400 is 10.

So 10 more packs.
