    A circle does not have any sides. It is a two-dimensional shape that is defined by a continuous curved line, with no straight lines or angles. The concept of sides is typically associated with polygons, which have straight sides. However, a circle is not a polygon and therefore does not have sides.

    Your teacher has brought some sweets for the class. After giving 3 sweets each to 15 children who had completed their homework, she has 60 sweets left. How many did she bring to school?

    • A.

      60

    • B.

      120

    • C.

      105

    • D.

      110

    Correct Answer
    C. 105
    Explanation
    If the teacher gave 3 sweets each to 15 children and had 60 sweets left, we can calculate the total number of sweets she brought to school. Since she gave away 3 sweets to each of the 15 children, the total number of sweets given away is 3 x 15 = 45. If she had 60 sweets left after giving away 45, then she must have brought 60 + 45 = 105 sweets to school.

      True

This means that the shape does not have any indentations or concave parts. Instead, it has a smooth and rounded surface that curves outward in all directions.
