Leda makes 73 oatmeal muffins for a bake sale. She accidentally drops five of them and throws them away. She puts as many of the remaining muffins as possible into 13 containers so that each container has the same number of muffins. How many of the remaining muffins does Ieda have left over? 2 oatmeal muffins 3 oatmeal muffins 4 oatmeal muffins 5 oatmeal muffins

3 oatmeal muffins

Step-by-step explanation:

First, subtract the 5 muffins she dropped from the total:

73 - 5

= 68

Then, divide this by 13:

68/13

= 5.23

We need a whole number of muffins in each container, so round this down to 5.

This means that there can be 5 muffins in each of the 13 containers.

Find how many will be leftover:

5(13)

= 65

68 - 65

= 3

So, there will be 3 oatmeal muffins left

x is the total time in minutes for the free response

you are given number of questions as 15 - m and time per item as 8 minutes

to find x multiply the two givens together:

x = 8 * (15-m) = 8(15-m)
