If a box of sweets is divided among 24 children, they will get 5 sweets each. How many would each get, if the number of the children is reduced by 4?

According to the question:

a box of sweets is divided among 24 children, they will get 5 sweets each

total no of sweets = 24 × 5 = 120

the number of the children is reduced by 4.

Now, total no of children = 24 – 4 = 20

Sweets get by each children = 120/20 = 6
