Solution
Total number of candles to be sold in the market = 204 Meera makes packets of 6. Number of candles in one packet = 6 Number of packets of candles made by Meera = 204 ÷ 6 = 34
34
`6")"overline( 204 " ")`
- 18
24
- 24
0
Thus, Meera will make 34 packets of candles.
Now, Meera makes packets of 12. Number of candles in one packet = 12 Number of packets made by Meera = 204 ÷ 12 = 17 Working :
17
`6")"overline( 204 " ")`
- 12
84
- 84
0
Thus, if Meera packs the candles in packets of 12, she will make 17 packets.
