Fiona baked 338 wafers. She ate 2
b of them and divided the remainder equally among her 5 friends.
- Find the number of wafers each of her friends received in terms of b?
- If b = 14, how many wafers did each of her friends receive?
(a)
Number of wafers left after Fiona ate = 338 - 2
bNumber of wafers that each of her friends received =
338 - 2b5 (b)
Number of wafers that each of her friends received
= (338 - (2 x 14)) ÷ 5
= (338 - 28) ÷ 5
= 310 ÷ 5
= 62
Answer(s): (a)
338 - 2b5; (b) 62
