Mrs. Jones divided $120 evenly among her children. Tom, the eldest, decided to give each of his brothers and sisters $6 of his share. Eventually, Tom ended up with $12. How many children does Mrs. Jones have?
A. 4
B. 5
C. 6
D. 8
E. 10
Check using options...
Let no of children be 4 (Start with option A)
Share of each child is \(\frac{$120}{4} = $30\)
One among the children (Tom) gives \($6\) to other 3 ,so he gives $18 to others and is left with \($30-$18 = $12\), Answer must be (A)
