Question

Fred, Max, and Ken went trick or treating. Fred had 2 bags of candy with 45 pieces each. Max had 3 bags with 20 pieces each and Ken had 4 bags of candy with 15 pieces each. The boys combined the candy and shared it among 12 people. How much candy is leftover?

Answer 1

Answer:

There will be 6 pieces of candies left.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. (45×2)+(20×3)+(15×4) = 210

2. Divide 210 by 12, you'll get 17 as the quotient.

3. Subtract the product of 12 and 17, which is 204, to the sum of candies, which is 210, and you'll get 6 as the difference.
