Question

D) 256 chocolates are distributed among the students of class 5.

If the number of chocolates obtained by each students is the same
as the number of students in the class, find the number of students
in the class?​

Answer 1

16

Explanation:

Let x be the number of chocolates obtained by each student

Since the number of chocolates obtained by each student = the number of students in the class, then, number of students in the class = x

256/x = x

Multiply both sides by x

256 = x × x ( x squared)

Multipy powers raised on both sides by 1/2

X = 16
