Question

A club puts its members into 5 groups for an activity. After 10 students have to leave early ,there are only 15 students left to finish the activity. How many students were in
each group?

Answer 1

Answer:

First, we need to figure out the total amount of students:

+ 10 students(ten students leave)

+ 15 students(15 students left)

10 + 15

= 25 students.

x = will represent the total amount of students in each group, so:-

5 groups per x students.

5x = 25(total students before alteration)

÷5    ÷5

x = 5, there are 5 students in each group.
