anonymous · Answer

do you want explanation..............

anonymous · Answer

Yes, of course.

anonymous · Answer

see 6 sheets would be reserved for her friends and 28 sheets would be left for small cards..

anonymous · Answer

now 1/8th of a sheet is required for 1 small card
$$\frac{ 1 }{ 8 }sheet=1 \small small card$$
so 1 sheet= 8cards
hence 8 small cards could be made from 1sheet
so we have 28 sheets for the small cards hence
total no. of cards is 28*8=224
