He wants each friend to have the same number of mints. how many mints does each friend get?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Each friend gets 8. 8+8=16

Answer 2

Each friend gets 8 mints.

Explanation:

If Ali wants to give 16 mints to 2 friends, all you have to do is divide 16/2. If you were to deal them like cards and you gave out a mint, one after the other between the two friends, then each of them would end up with 8 mints. :)
