    Direction: Jaya had 13 packets of hair clips. Each packet contained 35 hair clips. She gave 50 hair clips to her sister and \[\frac{\mathbf{1}}{\mathbf{3}}\] of the remainder equally to her 9 friends.
    How many hair clips had Jaya left?

    A)  185                            

    B)  270                

    C)  135                

    D)    135

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Total number of hair clips Jaya had \[=\text{13}\times \text{35}=\text{455}\] Number of hair clips she gave her sister = 50 Remaining \[=\text{ 455 }-\text{ 5}0\text{ }=\text{ 4}0\text{5}\] Number of clips given to her 9 friends \[=\frac{1}{3}\times 405=135\] \[\therefore \] Number of hair clips left with her        \[=\text{455}-(\text{5}0+\text{135})\] \[=\text{455}-\text{185}=\text{27}0\]
