Let 'K' be the total number of sweets.
Given total number of students = 112
If sweets are distributed among 112 children,
Let number of sweets each student gets = 'L'

=> K/112 = L ....(1)
But on that day students absent = 32 => remaining = 112 - 32 = 80
Then, each student gets '6' sweets extra.

=> K/80 = L + 6 ....(2)
from (1) K = 112L substitute in (2), we get
112L = 80L + 480
32L = 480
L = 15

Therefore, 15 sweets were each student originally supposed to get.

Let the two no's be a and b;
Given product of the no's is p = ab;
If the each nos is increased by 2 then the new product will be
(a+2)(b+2) = ab + 2a + 2b + 4
= ab + 2(a+b) + 4
= p + 2(a+b) + 4
Hence the new product is (p+4) times greater than twice the sum of the two original numbers.
