405 sweets were distributed equally among children in such a way that the number of sweets received by each child is 20% of the total number of children. How many sweets did each child recieve ?

Correct Answer: 9

Explanation:

Let the total number of children be x. 


Then, x * (20% of x) = 405  


=> x * 20x/100 = 405 


1 5 x 2  = 405 


 


=> x=45 


 


Number of sweets received by each child = 20% of 45 = 9.
