2 answers:
The question assumes there are 5 people at the table. So the number of nuggets are: 1,3,0,6,and x. So your equation is:
So let's solve what we can of the numerator first:
1+3+0+6+x=10+x
So now we have:
We can multiply both sides by 5 to clear the denominator:
Now we isolate the x by subtracting 10 from both sides.
10+x-10=15-10
x=5
So the missing number of nuggets is 5.
Hope that helps.
