Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation:
Let each students gets 1 chocolate. Now total chocolates = 50 x 30 = 1500
If first 10 days only 20 students were present, then total chocolates consumed = 10 × 20 = 200
Now we are left with 1500 - 200 = 1300 chocolates. These were to be consumed in 20 days.
So each day 1300/20 = 65 chocolates were to be distributed.
So we can add 65 - 20 = 45 students.
