Natalie baked 341 muffins. She ate 2
f of them and divided the remainder equally among her 5 friends.
- Find the number of muffins each of her friends received in terms of f?
- If f = 18, how many muffins did each of her friends receive?
(a)
Number of muffins left after Natalie ate = 341 - 2
fNumber of muffins that each of her friends received =
341 - 2f5 (b)
Number of muffins that each of her friends received
= (341 - (2 x 18)) ÷ 5
= (341 - 36) ÷ 5
= 305 ÷ 5
= 61
Answer(s): (a)
