Answer:

23 friends

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of friends she has = x

Total number of gum = 47 pieces

She gave 2 each to her friends, hence:

2x + 1 = 47

2x = 47 - 1

2x = 46

x = 46/2

x = 23

Therefore, the number of friends she has is 23

15% = 0.15

75.5 * 0.15 = 11.325

You just multiply.

Emily Dickinson's poetry was rescued for posterity by
LiRa [457]
Emily Dickinson's poetry was rescued for posterity by her sister (c). Emily Dickinson lived during the American Civil War, but she lived in her father's house in Amherst, Massachusetts. This area was not affected by the Civil War. She was fairly isolated as a poet and, as a result, the events of the Civil War did not play a major role in her poetry. She wrote mainly about the events in her direct environment, with no direct sense of the time in which she lived. Her world consisted of her own home and the surrounding countryside.
