Question

If 12 chocolates have to be shared between 4 friends equally, the number of chocolates each person gets is .

• A. 12
• B. 1
• C. 3
• D. 4

Answer 1

The correct option is C 3

Let the number of chocolates each person gets be $x$.
Given, total number of chocolates = 12
Number of persons = 4

$\therefore$ Number of persons $\times$ $x$ = Total number of chocolates
$\Rightarrow 4\times x=12\Rightarrow x=12÷4\Rightarrow x=3$
