mrs.bernad made some mango candies and gave them to mike and Anabel. Mike received 1/4 of the number of candies and Anabel received 2/3 of the remaining. How many candies did Mrs. Bernad make if she had 9 candies left?

Sagot :

9 × 2 = 18 --- 2/3 of the remaining candies

18 + 9 = 27 --- is the amount of candy before Anabel received 2/3 of it.

27 × 4 = 108 --- is the amount of candy Mrs. Bernad had before giving some to Mike and Anabel

108 × 1/4 = 27 --- is the amount of candy Mrs. Bernad gave to Mike.

The answer to the question is:

Mrs. Bernad made 108 mango candies.
