You work it backwards.
-- If there were 4 children and each child got 4 pieces,
then the children got (4 x 4) = 16 pieces altogether.
-- That's what was left after he took 2 pieces for himself.
So he started with (16 + 2) = <em>18 pieces</em>.
The answer is 62^ it reflects angle IK
Answer:
<h3>The answer is option D</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
18n - 7p-15n = 5p
To solve for n first make n the subject
Group like terms
That's
18n - 15n = 5p + 7p
Simplify
3n = 12p
Divide both sides by 3 to make n stand alone
That's
3n/3 = 12p/3
We have the final answer as
<h2>n = 4p</h2>
Hope this helps you
