there were 10 cans. each can has 4 beans. 8 people share the beans equally. how many beans did they each have?

Answer 1

Hello.

Okay , so first you need to find out how many beans there were.

10 cans with 4 beans in each can:

10 x 4 = 40 beans

If there are 8 people sharing equally, you need to divide the 40 beans by 8:

40 ÷ 8 = 5

Each person gets 5 beans.
