Question

Crystal baked 54 muffins for her family and friends. Her friends take 1/6 of the muffins. How many muffins does she have left? Of the muffins that she has left, her family took 2/5 of them. How many muffins did her family take? After her friends and family have taken their muffins, Crystal eats 1/3 of what is left. How many muffins did Crystal eat?

Answer 1

she has 45 muffins left

her family took 18 muffins

crystal ate 9 muffins

Explanation:

54 × 1/6 = 9

54 - 9 = 45

45 x 2/5 = 18

45 - 18 = 27

27 x 1/3 = 9
