Dana baked 274 croissants. She ate 4
g of them and divided the remainder equally among her 6 friends.
- Find the number of croissants each of her friends received in terms of g?
- If g = 19, how many croissants did each of her friends receive?
(a)
Number of croissants left after Dana ate = 274 - 4
gNumber of croissants that each of her friends received =
274 - 4g6 (b)
Number of croissants that each of her friends received

= (274 - 76) ÷ 6
= 198 ÷ 6
= 33
Answer(s): (a)
