Question

Grandma baked
96
cookies and gave them to her grandchildren. One of the grandchildren, Cindy, received
c
cc fewer cookies than she would have received had all of the cookies been evenly divided among the
8 grandchildren.

Answer 1

Answer:

$12-c$  Cookies

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is to find how many cookies did Cindy receive (write as an expression)?

Total cookies baked = 96

If evenly divided among 8 grandchildren, each would get:

$\frac{96}{8}=12$

Each grandchildren would have gotten 12 cookies

Now, Cindy received "c" fewer than this (12), so Cindy received:

12 - c  Cookies

Cindy Received = 12 - c  Cookies

Answer 2

Answer:

96/8 - c.

Step-by-step explanation:

She is divideing among the grandkids so it would be 98/8-c
