Question

Sasha shared 20 muesli bars with three friends.

She gave Hannah two bars fewer than Noah.
She gave Kyle three bars more than Hannah.
Sasha ended up having twice as many bars as Hannah.
How many muesli bars did Sasha have in the end?

Answer 1

Answer: Sasha has 20 bars to start of with. Let's assume Sasha keeps 6 bars for herself. The problem says Sasha has twice as many bars as Hanna, so Hanna HAS to have 3 bars. The problem says Kyle got 3 more bars than Hanna, so 3+3=6, and Hannah got 2 less bars than Noah.. Noah has to have bars because 5-3=2

Sasha 6, Kyle 6, Noah 5, Hanna 3= 6+6+5+3=20
