Question

Rianda bought 32 apples. She set aside 25% to eat and divided the rest equally among 6 pies. How many apples are in each pie?

Answer 1

Firstly, you have to calculate the 25 percent of the 32 apples which is 32 x 0.25 = 8. So the leftover apples would be 32 - 8 = 24. Since she divided the rest equally among 6 pies, you have to divide 24 by 6, which is 4.
Therefore there are 4 apples in each pie.

Answer 2

There are 4 apples in each pie.
