Question:
Free notebooks were distributed equally among children of a class. The number of notebooks each child got was one-eighth of the number of children. Had the number of children been half, each child would have got 16 notebooks. Total how many notebooks were distributed?
A. 256
B. 432
C. 512
D. 640
E. None of these
Answer: C) 512
Explanation:
Let the total number of children be x.
Then, x*(1/8) *x = x/2 * 16
=> x= 64.
Number of Notebooks = (1/8) * x*x.
= (1/8) * 64 * 64
= 512
