Armando bought 45 baseball cards. Of the 12 friends he invited to his cookout, half of them were able to attend. Armando gave each of his friends at the cookout the same number of baseball cards and had 3 cards left for himself. How many baseball cards did each friend receive?

HELPP PLEASE!!

anonymous · Answer

6 people attended, because half of 12 came
45/6=7 with a remainder of 3 (because 6*7=42)
the 3 tells you you're right, because armando gets 3 cards.
this means that each person got 7 cards

haha maybe you should talk to your teacher about understanding the concepts, because really you shouldn't have to ask people for the answers, and although I am happy to give them, it would be better if you could be self sufficient
