    On Children's Day, sweets were to be equally distributed among 175 children in a school. Actually on the Children's Day, 35 children were absent and therefore each child got 4 sweets extra. Total how many sweets were available for distribution?

    A)  2400               

    B)  2480

    C)  2680                           

    D)  2800

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Let total number of sweets be x. Then, \[\frac{x}{140}-\frac{x}{175}=4\Leftrightarrow 5x-4x=4\times 700\Leftrightarrow x=2800.\]
