Question
Naina bought 5 kg of ice cream as a birthday treat for her 23 friends. 400 g ice cream was left after everyone had an equal share. How much ice cream did each of her friends eat?
Answer

Total ice cream shared = 500 kg – 400 g
= 5000 g – 400 g = 4600 g
Share of each of her friend = 4600 ÷ 23 = 200
Therefore, each of her friend ate 200 g of ice cream.
