Question

Meera made 204 candles to sell in the market. She makes packets of 6. How many packets will she make?

If she packs them in packets of 12, then how many packets will she make?

Sum

Solution

Total number of candles to be sold in the market = 204 Meera makes packets of 6. Number of candles in one packet = 6 Number of packets of candles made by Meera = 204 ÷ 6 = 34

      34
`6")"overline( 204 " ")`
   - 18
      24
   - 24
       0

Thus, Meera will make 34 packets of candles.

Now, Meera makes packets of 12. Number of candles in one packet = 12 Number of packets made by Meera = 204 ÷ 12 = 17 Working :
    17
`6")"overline( 204 " ")`
   - 12
     84
  - 84
      0

Thus, if Meera packs the candles in packets of 12, she will make 17 packets.
