Josiah has 3 packs of toy animals. eac pack has the same number of animals. josiah gives 6 animals to his sister stephanie. then josiah has 9 animals left. how many animals were in each pack?

Respuesta :

To determine the number of animals in each pack, we need to understand each statement in the problem since these are key to obtaining the correct answer.

number of packs = 3
number of animals given to sister = 6
number of animals left = 9
total number of animals = 6+9 = 15

It is said the in each pack there is an equal number of animals. Therefore,

Number of animals per pack = 15 / 3 = 5 animals
