Solution

The correct option is B 286
Total number of Candies = 104060
There are 979 students.

Candies recieved by each student $= \frac{Total number of candies}{Number of students} = \frac{104060}{979}$

To find the remaning candies,we need to find the remainder of 105060 $\div$ 979

Let's solve 105060 $\div$ 979 using long division method
The quotient = 106 and the remainder =286
$∴ 1, 04, 060 \div 979$ = 106 R 286
Hence, There will be 286 candies left
