Answer:
d) 5 lollipops each and 3 left over
Step-by-step explanation:
To find out how many each of them get, you need to find the total amount of lollipops to be shared equally.
Total No. of lollipops = 3 + 5 + 7 + 4 + 9
= 28
No. of lollipops each of them get = 28 ÷ 5
= 5 R3
(To find the remainder of something, you have to know how much is the quotient (which is 5 in this case), multiply it by the divisor (which is also 5 in this case) then minus that number from the total (which is 28 in this case) )
Additional working:
5 × 5 = 25
28 - 25 = 3 (remainder)
