Wendy baked 193 wafers. She ate 3
n of them and divided the remainder equally among her 4 friends.
- Find the number of wafers each of her friends received in terms of n?
- If n = 11, how many wafers did each of her friends receive?
(a)
Number of wafers left after Wendy ate = 193 - 3
nNumber of wafers that each of her friends received =
193 - 3n4 (b)
Number of wafers that each of her friends received
= (193 - (3 x 11)) ÷ 4
= (193 - 33) ÷ 4
= 160 ÷ 4
= 40
Answer(s): (a)
193 - 3n4; (b) 40
