jasmine had some candy to give to her three children. she first took one piece for herself and then evenly divided the rest among her children. each child received two pieces. with how many pieces did she start?

Respuesta :

7 pieces. Each child received 2 pieces, so that adds up to a total of 6.
Math: 2 + 2 + 2 = 6

Jasmine also took 1 piece of candy for herself, so you’ll add one more piece of candy to the total.
Math: 6 + 1 = 7

In total there was 7 pieces of candy so there Jasmine started off with 7 pieces.
