Question

Fatima is making sandwiches for her friends and buys 3 loaves of bread. Fatima likes to put 3 bread slices in her sandwich but will use 2 for all of her friends. If each loaf of bread has 20 slices, how many sandwiches, including her own, can Fatima make?

Answer 1

Three loaves of bread with 20 slices each is 60 slices total. 60-3 slices for Fatima's sandwich is 57 slices remaining. 57/2=26.5. In total, Fatima can make 27 sandwiches and will have one slice of bread left over.
