a total of 3000 chocolates were distributed among 120 boys and girls such that each boy received 2 chocolates and each girl received 3 chocolates . find the respective number of boys and girls ?
let the number of boys be x . number of girls is 120 - x . total number of chocolates received by boys and girls = 2 x + 3 ( 120 - x ) = 300 = > 360 - x = 300 = > x = 60 . so , the number of boys or girls is 60 . answer : b
subtract(multiply(3, 120), divide(3000, const_10))
