On Teacher's Day, sweets were to be equally distributed among 190 children in a school. Actually, on the Teacher's day, 70 children were absent and therefore each child got 14 sweets extra. How many sweets did each child get on that day? Choices.
A) 18
B) 22
C) 28
D) 32
E) 38

Rationale: total children = 190 . let each student gets x chocolates if all were present . so , total chocolates = 190 x . 70 students were absent . so , no of extra chocolates distributed among 120 students , = 14 * 70 = 980 . now , total chocolates = 190 x 120 * ( x + 14 ) = 190 120 x + 1680 = 190 x 70 x = 1680 x = 24 . total no of chocolates = 24 * 190 = 4560 . no of chocolates each student gets on that day = 4560 / 120 = 38 . answer : option e
Answer: E
