Answer:
The number of sweets each friend gets = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of sweets s that each friend gets = the number of sweets in a box n ÷ number of friends f the sweets are shared between
s = n ÷ f
s = n/ f
if there are 60 sweets and 12 friends.
That is,
n = 60 sweets
f = 12 friends
Find s,
s = n/ f
= 60 / 12
= 5
s = 5 sweets
The number of sweets each friend gets = 5

Double Side Lengths: P = 8 (2 x 4 = 8)
Triple Side Lengths: P = 12 (4 x 3 = 12)
Quadruple Side Lengths: P = 16 (4 x 4 = 16)
Rectangle Portion:
Original Side Lengths: P = 6 (1 x 2 + 2 x 2 = 6)
Double Side Lengths: P = 12 (2 x 2 + 4 x 2 = 12)
Triple Side Lengths: P = 24 (4 x 2 + 8 x 2 = 24)
Quadruple Side Lengths: P = 48 (8 x 2 + 16 x 2 = 48)

2x ! the number would be x and 2x is 2 times x!
