Jill had some candy to give to her five
children. She first took seven pieces for
herself and then evenly divided the rest
among her children. Each child received
five pieces. With how many pieces did
she start?

Respuesta :

She started with 32 pieces.

Explanation: If she had 5 children and each child received 5 pieces, you can determine that she gave her children a total of 25 pieces because 5 x 5 = 25. If she took 7 pieces for herself before giving the rest away, you can determine that she had 32 pieces of candy to start with because 25 + 7 = 32.
