Answer:

21 stickers

Step-by-step explanation:

Stickers come in a pack of 7 sheets with 12 stickers on each sheet.

Therefore, the total number of stickers that Bill bought


\begin{gathered} =7\text{sheets }*12\text{ stickers} \\ =84\text{ stickers} \end{gathered}

If Billy gives his stickers equally to 4 of his friends, then:


\begin{gathered} \text{Number of sticker per friend=}(84)/(4) \\ =21\text{ stickers} \end{gathered}

Each friend receives 21 stickers.
