At home we are 9 members. Can we have 4 jalebis each? Are there enough jalebis for everyone in Dhara's family to have four each? How many jalebis should Dhara buy so that everyone can get four each?

Correct Answer

Given: Family members = 9 Jalebis each person wants = 4 Jalebis available = 24

Calculation: Total jalebis needed = 9×49 \times 4 = 36 Jalebis available = 24 24 < 36 ∴ Not enough jalebis

Additional jalebis needed = 36 - 24 = 12

Answer: No, 24 jalebis are not enough for 9 people to have 4 each. Dhara should buy 36 jalebis (or 12 more) so everyone gets 4 each.

Explanation

For 9 family members to have 4 jalebis each: 9×49 \times 4 = 36 jalebis needed. They have only 24 jalebis. 36 - 24 = 12 more jalebis needed.

Solution Steps

  1. Step 1: Family members = 9

  2. Step 2: Jalebis each person wants = 4

  3. Step 3: Total jalebis needed = 9×49 \times 4 = 36

  4. Step 4: Jalebis available = 24

  5. Step 5: 24 < 36, so not enough. Need 36 - 24 = 12 more jalebis
