Question

Bro this is so simple but I don't know. At the party, jorden shared out all the loonies in his present. Altogether there was 47 Lolies and 6 boys. How many lollies were leftover.

Answer 1

Answer:

5 lollies are left over

Step-by-step explanation:

Total lollies Jordan has = 47

Number of boys at the party = 6

If the lollies are shared equally,

Number of lollies each boy gets = Total lollies ÷ number of boys

= 47 ÷ 6

= 7 lollies remainder 5

That is,

6 boys × 7 lollies each = 42 lollies

How many lollies were leftover.

Remaining lolly = Total lollies - shared lollies

= 47 - 42

= 5 lollies are left over
