Free notebooks were distributed equally among children of a class. The number of notebooks each child got was one-eighth of the number of children. Had the number of children been half, each child would have got 16 notebooks. Total how many notebooks were distributed ?  Choose the correct choice from the following options
A) 512	B) 513	C) 514	D) 515	E) 516
Let total number of children be x.   Then, (x) x 1/8x = (x/2)x 16   = x = 64.   Number of notebooks = 1/8 x2 = (1/8	x 64 x 64)	= 512.   512nswer is 512.
