Question

Kerri likes to share her candy with her friends. For every two pieces she eats, she makes sure she

gives five pieces to her friends. If Kerri has given 35 pieces away this week, how many pieces has
she eaten? Show how you arrived at your answer.

Can you guys help me please

Answer 1

she has eaten 14 times because each time she ate 2 she gave away 5, that means she had to give out 7 times- 7*5 =35 so all you have to do is multiply 2 by 7 because she ate TWO each time she gave out 5!

Explanation:

Answer 2

14
Because 35 divided by 5 is 7 and 7x2 is 14 :)
