Step-by-step explanation:

2. Amount of Gumballs in all 4 packs = 4 x 5 = 20
3. No. of friends Pete has = 6
4. Amount of Gumballs each friend will get = 20 ÷ 6 = 3 Remainder = 2

Therefore, each friend will get 3 Gumballs and 2 Gumballs will be left over.

Answer 2

Given:

Pete has 4 packets of gumballs

Each packet has 5 balls

He shares the same number of gumballs with his friends.

No. of friends - 6

To find:

the number of gumballs each friend gets

Solution:

No. of packet = 4

No. of gumballs in each packet = 5

$Total \: Gumballs = 4 \times 5$

$Total \: Gumball s= 20$

No. of friends = 6

Dividing the 20 gumballs equally among his friends

$Share \: of \: the \: friends = \frac{20}{6}$

Share of the friends = 3 with a remainder 2.

This means that each of the 6 friends will get 3 gumballs each and Pete will be left with 2 gumballs.

Therefore, each friend of Pete will get 3 gumballs each.
