<span>To find the answer to this equation, use the result of "27 people" who prefer tea. This is equivalent to 3 out of 10 people in the whole survey sample. Using equivalent fractions to find the total sample, we see that "3/10 = 27/x." Multiplying 3 by 9 gives 27, so multiplying 10 by 9 gives a total sample size of 90 people.</span>
Answer:
3 1/3 gum balls per friend
Step-by-step explanation:
Packs of gum balls Pete has = 4
Each pack = 5 gum balls
Total gum balls Pete has = Number of packs of gum balls × Number of gum balls in each pack
= 4 × 5
= 20 gum balls
Pete gives the same number of gum balls to 6 friends.
Each friend gets = Total gum balls / number of friends
= 20 gum balls / 6 friends
= 3 2/6 gum balls per friend
= 3 1/3 gum balls per friend
