Answer:

C. 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Options

A. 5

B. 6

C. 8

D. Can't say without knowing the number of participants

Number of sweet distributed = Total number of sweets - left over sweets

= 1025 sweets - 1 left over sweet

= 1024 sweets

Number of participants = Number of sweets distributed / number of sweets given to each participant

A. 5

Number of participants = Number of sweets distributed / number of sweets given to each participant

= 1024 /5 Sweets

= 204.8 participant

B. 6

Number of participants = Number of sweets distributed / number of sweets given to each participant

= 1024/6

= 170.67 participant

C. 8

Number of participants = Number of sweets distributed / number of sweets given to each participant

= 1,024/8

= 128 participant

D. Can't say without knowing the number of participants

From the options given, the number of sweets given away to each participant could be 8

Number of sweets given to each participants is 32.

Since, A sports teacher had 1025 sweets and he had one sweet left after distributing.

So, number of sweets he distributing is, [tex]1025-1=1024[/tex]

Since, distributing these equally amongst all the participants

Therefore, number of sweets given to each participants is, [tex]=\sqrt{1024}=32[/tex]

So, total number of participants is 32 and number of sweets given to each participants is 32.
