Expert Answer
Let there are n children,then each of them will give (n-1) gifts
n^2 - n = 132
n^2 - n -132 = 0
(n - 12) * (n + 11) = 0
n - 12 = 0 or n + 11 = 0
n = 12, -11
Since number of children cant be negative, so n = 12
n^2 - n = 132
n^2 - n -132 = 0
(n - 12) * (n + 11) = 0
n - 12 = 0 or n + 11 = 0
n = 12, -11
Since number of children cant be negative, so n = 12
Thus, the number of children is 12.
