Answer:

B) 5 people share 27 brownies.

Explanation:

This is the answer because:

1) If 5 people are sharing 27 brownies, it means they are basically asking, how many brownies did each person get. Then, we would write the numerical sentence: 27 ÷ 5 because we want to know how many brownies each person got.

Hope this helps! :D
