Solution

The correct option is C 5
Total number of ladoos = 80
Number of boys = 16
So, to find the number of ladoos each of them gets, we have to divide 80 by 16.
Let's use repeated subtraction to find the answer.
80 - 16 = 64
64 - 16 = 48
48 - 16 = 32
32 - 16 = 16
16 - 16 = 0
Thus, we can subtract 16 from 80, a total of 5 times, which means each boy will get 5 ladoos.
