Dang, Ming's pretty popular.

Answer 2

Number of friends Ming has = 28

Explanation:

Let number of friends be x

Ming won lollipops = 121

after distribution he left with = 9

number of lollipops he distributed to friends = total won - left = 121-9

= 112 lollipops

each friend got = 4 lollipops

total lollipops = 4(x )

from given information

4x = 112

x = 28

therefore number of friends Ming has 28
