Joanie bought a total of 56 presents to put in 7 gift bags.She put 3 pencils and an equal number of stickers in each bag.How many stickers did she put in each bag​

Answer 1

5 stickers were put in each bag.

Explanation:

There is a total of 56 presents and 7 gift bags. If she puts three pencils in each bag, 7 times 3 is 21. 56 presents minus 21 pencils is 35 presents left. 35 divided by 7 is 5, so there are 5 stickers in each bag.
