Answer

C

Step-by-step solution

2 steps
  1. Calculate the total number of oranges.

    The oranges were initially shared among 50 students, and each student received 15 oranges.

    Total oranges=Number of students×Oranges per student\text{Total oranges} = \text{Number of students} \times \text{Oranges per student} Total oranges=50×15\text{Total oranges} = 50 \times 15 Total oranges=750\text{Total oranges} = 750
  2. Calculate how many oranges each student will get if the same number of oranges are shared among 30 students.

    Now, the 750 oranges are shared equally among 30 students.

    Oranges per student=Total orangesNew number of students\text{Oranges per student} = \frac{\text{Total oranges}}{\text{New number of students}} Oranges per student=75030\text{Oranges per student} = \frac{750}{30} Oranges per student=25\text{Oranges per student} = 25

    Each student will get 25 oranges.

    The correct option is C.
    The final answer is C. 25\boxed{\text{C. 25}}.
