<em><u>Answer:</u></em>
a. Jennifer gets 7 Kg
b. Jennifer has 5 Kg left
<u><em>Complete question:</em></u>
Jennifer's grandmother buys carrots at the farm stand. She and her 3 grandchildren equally share the carrots. The total weight of the carrots she buys is 28 Kg.
a. How many Kg of carrots will Jennifer get?
If Jennifer uses 2 Kg of carrots to bake muffins, how many Kg of carrots does she have left?
<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
<u>Part a:</u>
We know that a total of 28 Kg will be divided equally among the grandmother and her 3 grandchildren. This means that 28 Kg of carrots will be shared equally among 4 people
We can get the number of Kg that Jennifer will get by simply dividing 28 by 4
<u>This is done as follows:</u>
Jennifer will get = Kg of carrots
<u>Part b:</u>
We know that Jennifer used 2 Kg of carrots for muffins
This means that the amount she has left can be calculated be subtracting the amount she used for muffins from the total amount she had
<u>This means that:</u>
Jennifer has = 7 - 2 = 5 Kg left of carrots
Hope this helps :)
