Question

Ramon has 67 baseball cards he buys 11 more cards. He shares all the cards equally between himself and two friends. How many baseball cards does each person get

Answer 1

Each person get 26 cards.

Explanation:

Given:

Initial number of cards Ramon has = 67

Number of cards added = 11

Ramon divided all the cards equally between himself and two friends.

So, total number of cards Ramon has = 67 + 11 = 78

Now, he divided 78 cards equally between himself and two friends. So, the total number of cards is divided equally into three parts.

Therefore, in order to find the number of cards in each part is obtained by dividing the total number of cards by three. This gives,

Each person share =
`(78)/(3)=26`

Hence, each person gets 26 cards.
