Answer:

30 driveways

Explanation:

Since it was 5 friends, and they each got the same amount of money, multiply to find the total amount:

5 × 24 = 120

which means they in total, they earned $120. To find how many driveways they shoveled, divide:

120 ÷ 4 = 30

So, they shoveled 30 driveways in total

Hope this helps :)

Answer: 30

Step-by-step explanation: First divide 24$ by 4$ to know how much 1 friend shoveled snow from people’s driveways.

24 divided by 4 = 6

So each friend shoveled 6 people’s driveways.

There are 5 friends, so multiply 6 by 5 to find the total amount of driveways shoveled.

6x5 = 30

So, the 5 friends altogether shoveled 30 driveways.
