Question

Ashlyn and her friends are making gingerbread houses. They need to divide 28 packages of gumdrops between 7 friends. There are 25 gumdrops in each package. How many gumdrops will each friend get?

Answer 1

100 gumdrops per person

Explanation:

We know that there are 28 packages and each one has 25. So just multiply 28 by 25 and you get 700 gumdrops in total. Finally because there are seven friends in total you divide 700 by 7 and get 100 per person.
