Question

Fred, Max, and Ken went trick or treating. Fred had 2 bags of candy with 45 pieces each. Max had 3 bags with 20 pieces each and Ken had 4 bags of candy with 15 pieces each. The boys combined the candy and shared it among 12 people. How much candy is leftover?

Answer 1

6 pieces of candy will be left.

Explanation:

45×2 = 90

20×3 = 60 +

15×4 = 60

Ttl. of candies= 210

Candies ÷ people

210 ÷ 12 = 17.5

17-12= 5.5 (round to the tenth) 5.5-> 6

210-6= 204

you'll get 6 as the difference which is your answer.
