Question

Rosa had 4 dozen beads. She split them into 6 equal groups and gave two groups to her friend. How many beads did Rosa have then?

Answer 1

Answer: 32

Step-by-step explanation:

4 dozen beads is 48 beads. Divide 48 into 6 groups, and your answer is 8. If Rosa gave 2 groups to her friend, she gave 16 beads, which leaves her with 32 beads.

Answer 2

Answer: 32

Step-by-step explanation:

1 dozen = 12.

4 dozen x 12 = 48.

48 ÷ 6 = 8

If she gave two groups of 8 beads, that is 16 beads.

48 beads - 16 beads = 32 beads.

The answer is 32 beads.
