On a particular day, sweets were to be equally distributed among 495 students of a school. However, on that particular day 396 students from a nearby school also joined them. Hence each student present on that day got four sweets less. How many sweets were distributed ?
Let the no. of sweets be 'x'.
According to question
$$\frac{x}{495}-\frac{x}{495+396}=4$$.
$$\frac{x}{495}-\frac{x}{891}=4$$.
$$x=4455$$.
Hence, Option C is correct.
