A pencil costs ₹5. How many pencils can be bought for ₹80?
Explanation
To find out how many pencils can be bought for ₹980, we need to divide the total amount by the cost of one pencil. Cost of one pencil = ₹5, so number of pencils = 980 / 5 = 196. Since we can't buy a fraction of a pencil, we take the integer part, which is 196. However, the question asks for how many pencils can be bought, so we need to divide 980 by 5 to get the number of pencils that can be bought. 980 / 5 = 196, but we can buy 16 sets of 5 pencils for 980 rupees, so the answer is 16.
