Answer:
(400-x) / 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Savannah had 400 chocolate chips. She saved x chips for a garnish, and mixed the rest of the chocolate chips evenly into 3 pans of brownies. Write your answer as an expression
Solution
Total chocolate chips Savannah has=400
Saved chips for garnish =x
Total chocolate chips remaining= 400 - x
We subtract the saved chocolate chips because when an item is saved, it will be deducted from the original Quantity
She mixed the rest of the chocolate chips evenly into 3 pans of brownies
That is,
Remaining chocolate chips (400 - x) is mixed evenly into 3 pans of brownies
(400 - x) / 3
Therefore, the answer is given by the expression:
(400-x) / 3
