Question

Hector spent from Sunday to the following Saturday at the beach each day he found an equal number of shells if Hector found 63 shells how many shells did you find on Tuesday? Explain your answer.

Answer 1

Hector found 63 shells over 7 days, which means he collected 9 shells each day including Tuesday.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hector spent a week at the beach, from Sunday to the following Saturday, and found a total of 63 shells. Since he found an equal number of shells each day, we can calculate the number of shells he found daily.

1. Determine the total number of days Hector spent at the beach: Sunday to Saturday is 7 days.
2. Divide the total number of shells by the number of days: 63 shells ÷ 7 days = 9 shells per day.
3. Therefore, the number of shells Hector found on Tuesday or any other single day was 9 shells.
