Emily baked 282 wafers. She ate 2
d of them and divided the remainder equally among her 4 friends.
- Find the number of wafers each of her friends received in terms of d?
- If d = 11, how many wafers did each of her friends receive?
(a)
Number of wafers left after Emily ate = 282 - 2
dNumber of wafers that each of her friends received =
282 - 2d4 (b)
Number of wafers that each of her friends received
= (282 - (2 x 11)) ÷ 4
= (282 - 22) ÷ 4
= 260 ÷ 4
= 65
Answer(s): (a)
282 - 2d4; (b) 65
