Question

L red balloons and m green balloons were divided evenly among 3 kids. how many balloons did each kid get?

Answer 1

Given:

Number of red balloons = L

Number of green balloons = M

If they were divided evenly among 3 kid, let's find the amount each kid gets.

To find the number of balloons each kid gets, apply the formula:

`\text{ number each kid gets = }\frac{total\text{ number of ballons}}{number\text{ of children}}`

Hence, we have:

`\text{ number each kid gets = }(L+M)/(3)`

ANSWER:

`(L+M)/(3)`
