Question

The number of sheets of paper available for making notebooks is 75,000. Each sheet makes 8 pages of a notebook. Each notebook contains 200 pages. How many notebooks can be made from the available paper?

Answer 1

Number of sheets available = 75,000 Number of pages obtained from one sheet = 8
Total number of pages obtained = 8 x 75,000 = 6,00,000
                     75000
                           x8
                    600000
Then, number of notebooks made =`"Total number of pages obtained"/"No. of pages contained by notebook"`

`= (6,00,000)/200`
= 3, 000 Ans.
