Diana baked 374 puffs. She ate 2
f of them and divided the remainder equally among her 6 friends.
- Find the number of puffs each of her friends received in terms of f?
- If f = 19, how many puffs did each of her friends receive?
(a)
Number of puffs left after Diana ate = 374 - 2
fNumber of puffs that each of her friends received =
374 - 2f6 (b)
Number of puffs that each of her friends received
= (374 - (2 x 19)) ÷ 6
= (374 - 38) ÷ 6
= 336 ÷ 6
= 56
Answer(s): (a)
374 - 2f6; (b) 56
