Answer: 20ways
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of candies = 7
Number of kids = 4
Since each kid must receive at least one candy ;
Therefore number of candies left to ration is
7 - 4 = 3 candies ; among 4 kids.
To share 'n' identical object among 'r' number of individuals can be expressed in the form :
[n+(r-1)Cr-1]
n = 3 ; r = 4
[3+(4-1)C4-1] = 6C3
Recall: nCr = n! / (n-r)!r!
6C3 = 6!/(6-3)!3!
6C3 = 6!/3!3!
= (6 * 5 * 4) / (3 * 2 * 1)
= 120 / 6
= 20ways
So 280=1.4x so 280/1.4 is 200 .7*200 is 140 so $140
