Question

Zavier and Maria shared 70 books, Zavier had 2 more books than Maria, how many did Maria have?​

Answer 1

Zavier had 37 books, and Maria had 33 books

Explanation:

You take 70 and divide it by 2 (cause you are only dividing the books up to maria and Zaviar); this will give you 35 books to each person EXCEPT Zavier has two more books to his pile, so you subtract two books from Marie and add it to Zaviers!
