Answer

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!!!
