plz exxplain
plz explain ans for this.....
is the ans D i mean 2400
and my explanation for this is each layer contains 27 creams and there are 2 layers
so each box contains 54 creams
and in that 9 flavours are there
so 54/9 gives the no. of times these flavours are used.and in that 9 vanilla is repeated twice
so 6*2
so each box contains 12 vanilla
so for 200 boxes 12*200 gives 2400
is my ans correct?if not so give the correct ans
d.
2400
because the order is v,o,c,v,r,l,p,c,l ; ie in a row leangth of 9 there are 2 vanillas. nd there are three rows (9*3 = 27) , therefore 6 vanillas in a layer, hence 12 in a box. therefore , 2400(12*200) in 200 boxes
2400
2400

2400!
D is the ans
In each order 2 vanilla(i.e.,in 9)
three such orders makes 27(first row)
so in one row we have 6(2+2+2) vanilla's.
one box has 2 rows.
so in one box we have 6*2=12 vanillas
In 200 boxes 200*12=2400.
hence the ans.
