Re: Puzzle Contest-121
In a soap company a soap is manufactured with 11 parts. For making one soap you will get 1 part as scrap. At the end of the day u have 250 such scraps. From that how many soaps can be manufactured?
Ans: 250/11-22 soaps so 22 scrap with 8scrap remaining,so totally 30 scrap.now divide this by 11 .finally u get 24 soaps and 10 scraps remaining...
