Question

At the flea market frank found 2 buckets of LEGOs with each bucket containing 1,185 lego pieces.If he wanted to split the lego pieces into 3 piles how many pieces should he put into each pile.

Answer 1

Each pile will contain 790 pieces of LEGOs

Step-by-step explanation

To do this, we need to first find the total number of legos available.

2 buckets of LEGOs

Each bucket contains 1,185 legos

So,

2 buckets will contain (2 × 1,185) = 2,370 LEGOs

So, we now need to divide 2,370 LEGOs into 3 piles

Each pile will contain (2370/3) = 790 pieces of LEGOs

Hope this Helps!!!
