Question

Kenneth shared a basket of apples with three of his friends. The basket weighed 14.75 pounds. What is the weight of the apples that each of the friends received?

Answer 1

Assuming each person gets the same amount of apples, each friend gets 3.6875lbs of apples.

Explanation:

Now in order to find this, we need to note that 4 people get apples (Kenneth and 3 friends). So we take the total number of pounds and divide it by 4.

14.75lbs/ 4 people = 3.6875lbs per person
