A bunch of banana is shared equally among 3 children.How many banana's are in the bunch?
If this is all of the problem, then any multiple of 3; i.e,
3 or 6 or 9 or 12 or 15 or 18 etc.
To find out the total number of bananas in the bunch, we need to divide the number of bananas by the number of children.
Since the bananas are shared equally among 3 children, we can say that the total number of bananas is a multiple of 3.
To solve this, we can try different multiples of 3 until we find one that works. Let's start with a low number, like 3.
If we divide 3 bananas equally among 3 children, each child will get 1 banana. But since this is not enough to have an equal share for each child, we can conclude that the total number of bananas must be higher than 3.
Let's try the next multiple of 3, which is 6.
If we divide 6 bananas equally among 3 children, each child will get 2 bananas. This satisfies the condition of having an equal share for each child, so the total number of bananas in the bunch is indeed 6.
Therefore, there are 6 bananas in the bunch.
