Respuesta :
No.of candies they ate = 4*13=52
Left candies=2
Total candies are 52+2= 54
Answer:
54 pieces of candy were originally in the bag .
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that Sarah and her 3 friends split a bag of candy evenly
Total no. of persons = 4
Each ate no. of pieces of candy = 13
So, 4 persons ate no. of pieces of candy =[tex]13 \times 4 = 52[/tex]
So, they ate 52 candies in total .
We are also given that 2 pieces left over.
So, no. of candies initially = 52+2 = 54
Hence 54 pieces of candy were originally in the bag .
