Question

If 3360 chocolates are equally distributed among 40 people, then how many chocolates did each one get?

• A. 84

Answer 1

The correct option is A 84
Total number of chocolates = 3360
Number of people = 40
Number of chocolates per person
$=3360÷40$
$=336÷4$
$$\begin{array}{c}84\\ 4336\\ -\underset{–}{32}2\\ 16\\ -\underset{–}{16}\\ 0\end{array}$$Thus, 3360 ÷ 40 = 336 ÷ 4 = 84.
So, each person got 84 chocolates.
