300 apples are distributed equally among a certain number of students. Had three been 10 more students, each would have received one apple less. Find the number of students. |

Answer» Correct Answer - 50 Let the total number of students be x. Then, `(300)/(x)-(300)/((x+10))=1impliesx^(2)+10x-3000=0` `implies(x-50)(x+60)=0impliesx=50.` |
