Question

Jonas has a bowl full of jelly beans, which he spills out on the kitchen table and counts. The amount is at least 70. He takes out 10 jelly beans and eats them. He then splits the rest equally among his three younger siblings

Which number line below represents the number of jelly beans each of Jonas' siblings receives?

Answer 1

Answer: it would be b

Step-by-step explanation: if u divide 60 and 3 you get 20 that is how it is b

Answer 2

Explanation:

Alright, so, if he takes out at least seventy jelly beans, and eats ten, that leaves him with sixty.

70-10=60.

He has three younger siblings that he splits at least sixty jelly beans with, which means they get roughly twenty each.

60/3=20.

So, I believe your correct answer here would be B). The siblings would get about twenty jelly beans each.

I hope this helps :)
