After distributing the sweets equally among 25 children, 8 sweets remain. Had the number of children been 28, 22 sweets would have been left after equal distribution. What was the total number of sweets ?  Pick:
A) 328	B) 348	C) 358	D) 362	E) Data inadequate
Explanation:   Let the total number of sweets be (25x + 8).   Then, (25x + 8) - 22 is divisible by 28   (25x - 14) is divisible by 28 28x - (3x + 14) is divisible by 28   (3x + 14) is divisible by 28 x = 14.   Therefore Total number of sweets = (25 x 14 + 8) = 358.   Answer:358
