Question

If the given picture represent $5$ balloons, then the number of symbols to be drawn to represent $60$ balloons is _______ .

• A. $5$
• B. $60$
• C. $10$
• D. $12$

Answer 1

The correct option is D $12$

The ball represents 5 balloons.

Let there be $x$ balls.

Then they must represent $5\times x=5x$ balloons.

Now, according to question,

$5x=60$

So, $x=\frac{60}{5}=12$

Thus there must be $12$ balls.
