Mariel brought 48 brownies to school for a class party. The class ate 5/6 of the brownies, and Mariel brought the rest home. How many brownies did Mariel bring home?

8 brownies

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's figure out how many brownies the class ate

Multiply 48* 5/6=40

Then, subtract how many the class ate from the total

48-40=8

So, he brought home 8 brownies

Hope this helped!

8

Step-by-step explanation:

Total brownies brought to school by Mariel = 48

The class ate 5/6 of 48 and she took the rest home.

Therefore

Number of brownies brought home by Mariel = 5/6 of 48 and the result subtracted from 48

= 5/6 x 48

Multiply through

240/6 = 40

So

48 - 40 = 8

Mariel brought 8 brownies back home

a = 3.14

b = 18

c = 18/5 or 3.6 or 3 3/5
