Grandma baked 969696 cookies and gave them to her grandchildren. One of the grandchildren, Cindy, received ccc fewer cookies than she would have received had all of the cookies been evenly divided among the 888 grandchildren. How many cookies did Cindy receive? Write your answer as an expression.

Respuesta :

The total number of cookies baked by grandma = 96

Number of grandchildren = 8

As given, all cookies were evenly divided among 8 children, let us assume that everyone except Cindy got equal share. So on being divided equally, it becomes, [tex]\frac{96}{8}=12[/tex] cookies per children.

But, as mentioned that Cindy received 'c' cookies less, so let us suppose Cindy received 'x' cookies.

Expression becomes: [tex]x=12-c[/tex]

Hence, Cindy received 12-c cookies.
