Question

Some olives are distributed in glass jars as shown below.

If each jar contains an equal number of the olives, how many olives are in a jar?

• A. 255
• B. 275
• C. 295
• D. 305

Answer 1

The correct option is D 305

Total number of olives = 45750
Number of jars = 150

Number of olives in each box = Total number of olives ÷ Number of jars

Using long division, we get:

Here,
Quotient = 305
Remainder = 0

$\therefore$ Each jar will have 305 olives.
