Solution
79
Explanation:
Total chocolates before distributing to children = 12 × 12 = 144
10 chocolates were given to children, then number of chocolates left = 144 - 10 = 134
However, two more dozens of chocolates were added, then chocolates = 134 + 24 = 158
Number of chocolates per packet = `158/2 = 79`
