Answer 1

Answer:

1). Number of kids on the other side = 16

2). Brian took the time to each piece of pie = 20 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

1). Let the number of kids on one side = x

  Then the number of kids on other side = 2x

  3 adults helped the side having number of kids = x, then the number of people on this side = x + 3

Since the total number of people on this side = 11

Then the equation will be,

x + 3 = 11

x = 11 - 3

x = 8

Then number of kids on the other side = 2x = 2×8

                                                                           = 16

2). By unitary method,

∵ Brian took the time to eat 6 pieces of the pie = 2 minutes

∴ Brian will take time to eat 1 piece of pie = $\frac{2}{6}$ minutes

                                                                     = $\frac{2}{6}\times 60$ seconds

                                                                     = 20 seconds
