Question

Raju has 37 sweets with him, which he wants to share with 5 of his friends equally. He will be left with sweet/sweets.

• A. 4
• B. 1
• C. 3
• D. 2

Answer 1

The correct option is D 2

Number of sweets = 37
Number of people among which the sweets are shared = 5
So, we need to divide 37 by 5 to get the answer.

$$\begin{array}{c}7\\ 537\\ -352\\ \overline{02}\end{array}$$
Thus, we have a quotient of 7 and a remainder of 2, which means each of them will get 7 sweets each and Raju will be left with 2 sweet extra.
