Question

Suppose you have 15 muffins. How many muffins are left after you give a friend 1/3 of them?

Answer 1

You would have 10 muffins left because 1/3 of 15 is 5 so 15-5=10

Answer 2

If you split 15 muffins into 3 groups, youre going to have 5 muffins in each group. so if you give a friend 1 out of the 3 groups, youre going to have 10 muffins left.
