25 soaps can be manufactured.

Using 251 scraps we make = 22 soaps. (i.e., 11*22 = 242)Remaining scraps = 9.

Again, 22 soaps produce = 22 scraps.

So, now we have 22+9=31 scraps remaining.

Using 31 scraps we make 2 soaps and 2scraps remaining.(i.e., 2*11 =22)

Again, that 2 soaps produce = 2 scraps. And already we have 9 scraps. Total 9+2 =11sscraps.

By using 11 scraps, we make 1 soap.

So, total = 22+2+1 = 25 soaps we produce.

scrap is nothing but the left over part during manufacturing

so 251/11=22 (re=9) ; 22 soaps can be made and 22 scraps are there
now,22/11=2 (re=0); 2 soaps can be made and 2 scraps are there
this 2 scrap + re 9 gives (9+2)=11 ;
11/11=1 .... ; 1 soap is made with one scrap

totally (22+2+1) 25 soaps :)

here at the end of the day we get 251 scraps so using those 251/11 =242/11=22 soaps remaining =9 scraps using 22 soaps 22*1=22 scraps +9 scraps=31 =2 soaps 9 remain from 2 soaps 2 more scraps are formed so 22+2+1=25 soaps at the end of the day

251/11=22 (re=9) ; 22 soaps can be made and 22 scraps are there
now,22/11=2 (re=0); 2 soaps can be made and 2 scraps are there
this 2 scrap + re 9 gives (9+2)=11 ;
11/11=1 .... 1 soap is made with one scrap

total= (22+2+1) 25 soaps
