Terence baked 6 mango pudding and shared it equally with children. each child received 5/6 of the pudding. a) how many children were there b) what fraction of the pudding was left c) what is the total amount of mango pudding each child will receive if the remainder is divided evenly and distributed among them.

Well, we would first have to write an equation. Let's start with letter (a). We will put in the variable (x) for the number of children there were, because we don't know how many there were. So... IF we knew how many children there were, what would we do to find out how much pie each child got? Of course, we would divide! S
6 (mangos) divided by x (the number of children) = 5/6
Now, we solve for x!

So, our first step in the equation 6/x=5/6 would be to multiply, because multiplication is the opposite of division! So, just let me see if I can work this
6/x(×)5/6
So, we now can cross multiply and get...
5x=36 (Because 5 time x is 5x and 6 times 6 is 36)
Now, we divide!
So, 5x/5 cancels out and we get just plain little x. 36/5 gives us
Improper Fraction Form: 36
Mixed Number Form: 7 1/5
Decimal Form: 7.2

And that's your answer! I really hope this helps! ^_^

It is 198,87032,750 + 375 = 33145 so, we take the 6% and we make it a decimal (0.6) and multiply that, then that is your answer

No he does not because he can only cover 12 square feet from 15 square feet which he will still need 3 more. this is because if 3×5=15 square feet and 15-12=3 which thats the answer
