Answer 3

[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

To find out how many pieces of banana bread Elena gives to each friend, we can divide the total number of pieces of banana bread she has (12) by the number of friends she gives it to (5).

So, the calculation would be:

12 pieces of banana bread ÷ 5 friends = ?

When we perform this division, we find that each friend will receive 2.4 pieces of banana bread. However, since we cannot have a fraction of a piece, we need to round the answer to a whole number.

In this case, Elena can give each friend 2 pieces of banana bread, with 2 pieces left over.
