How many soap can be manufactured
My question is
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 you have 251 such scraps. From that how many soaps can be manufactured..
According to myself the solution is,
251/11 = 22 Scrap + 22 Soap.
On this 22 Scrap
22/11 = 2 Scrap + 2 Soap
Total Soap can be manufactured is : 24 Soap.
Am I right with answer and approach to the problem ?
Advance Thanks,
