Question

Mohit baked 2000 cookies. He sold 600 of them and gave the rest equally to 20 of his friends. How many cookies did each of his friends receive ?

• A. $18$
• B. $70$
• C. $80$
• D. $1400$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $70$

$\Rightarrow$ Total number of cookies baked $=2000$

$\Rightarrow$ Number of cookies sold $=600$

$\Rightarrow$ Remaining number of cookies $=2000-600=1400$

$\Rightarrow$ Number of friends $=20$

$\Rightarrow$ Number cookies each friend received $=\frac{1400}{20}=70$
