Explanation:-
Solution:
Explaination 1
Let number of children=nThen, number of books each child will get =n8Total books distributed=n×n8=n28If the number children=n2,number of books each child will get=16Total books distributed =n2×16=8n ∴n28=8n⇒n8=8⇒n=64Total number of books distributed=8n=8×64=512
Explaination 2
If number of children was half, each child would have got 16 books.
Therefore, actually each child got
162
= 8 Books And the number of children is 8 × 8 = 64
Hence, total number of books distributed = 64 × 8 = 512
Explaination 3
Let number of children
=n
Then, number of books each child will get
=n8
If the number children
=n2
,
number of books each child will get
=16
More children, less books (indirect proportion). Therefore,
n:n2=16:n8⇒n28=8n⇒n8=8⇒n=8
Therefore, total number of books distributed
=8n = 8×64 = 512
