At a party, the cupcakes are to be shared among the children equally. Find the number of cupcakes each child will get.Open in App
Solution
The correct option is A 5
Total cupcakes = 555
Number of children = 100
Number of cupcakes each child gets is the quotient of the total cupcakes ÷ the number of people
i.e.,
555 ÷ 100
Dividing a number by 100 gives the last two digits as remainder and the remaining digits as quotient.
Hence,
Quotient = 5
Remainder = 55
∴ Each child will get 5 cupcakes, and 55 cupcakes will be left after distribution.
