Jaslyn baked 307 wafers. She ate 5
q of them and divided the remainder equally among her 4 friends.
- Find the number of wafers each of her friends received in terms of q?
- If q = 15, how many wafers did each of her friends receive?
(a)
Number of wafers left after Jaslyn ate = 307 - 5
qNumber of wafers that each of her friends received =
307 - 5q4 (b)
Number of wafers that each of her friends received
= (307 - (5 x 15)) ÷ 4
= (307 - 75) ÷ 4
= 232 ÷ 4
= 58
Answer(s): (a)
307 - 5q4; (b) 58
