Answer:

22 chocolates

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let x represent the number of chocolates Mary has. Since she always has 2 extra chocolates, the number of chocolates distributed to her friends would be x - 2. And x - 2 is the least common multiple of 4 and 5 because x - 2 chocolates are evenly distributed among 4 and 5 friends. The LCM of 4 and 5 is 20, so x - 2 is 20.  Mary has 22 chocolates.

Hi there! Three days ago I ordered 8 Neat cupcakes. This week I'd like 50% fewer than that.
Furkat [3]

Total cup cake ordered = 8

Percentage 'P' of a quantity x can be calculated using:

p/100 * x

Here,

P = 50%

x = 8

Put these values in formula.

50/100 * 8

=> 1/2 * 8

=> 4

So, the 50% fewer cupcakes would be (8 - 4) = 4 cupcakes.
