Correct Answer - Option 5 : 6400
Given:
Total children = 1080
Girls = 520
Absent girls = 70
Ratio of chocolates given = 1 : 2
Calculation:
Let the number of chocolates given to boys be x,
∴ Chocolates given to girls be 2x.
Number of boys = 1080 – 520 = 560
Present girls = 520 – 70 = 450
A.T.Q
560x + 520 × 2x = (x + 1) × 560 + 450 × 2x
⇒ 1600x = 560 + 1460x
⇒ 140x = 560
⇒ x = 4
Total chocolates = 560 × 4 + 520 × 8 = 6400
∴ The total number of chocolates is 6400.
