Answer:

9 candies

Step-by-step explanation:

You are required to find the number of candies in your pocket

Let

x = number of candies in your pocket

A friend gives you five more candies.

Total candies = 14

This can be represented by the equation:

Total candies = candies in your pocket + candies your friend gave you

14 = x + 5

14 - 5 = x

9 = x

x = 9 candies

x = number of candies in your pocket = 9

A boy purchased(bought) a party length sandwich 59 in long. He wants to cut it into three pieces so that the middle piece is 6in
Leviafan [203]
Ok so let's start with what we know- the shortest piece is 8 inches so there's one length... then the middle piece is 6 inches longer than the shortest (6+ 8) so the middle piece would be 14 inches long. To find the last piece we can add up the other two pieces we know (14+8) which would be 22 and subtract that from how long the whole sandwich is (59-22) which would be 37 inches long. So in the end he shortest piece would be 8 inches, the middle 14 inches and the longest 37 inches.
