Each group in a class ha to build a project using only a sheet of paper, glue and popsicle sticks. The teacher looks in the drawers throughout the classroom. She find 127 popsicles in one drawer and 113 in another. She evenly distributed those among the 6 groups. How many popsicles does each group get?
There are a total of 127 + 113 = 240 popsicles in both drawers.
Each group will therefore receive 240/6 = 40 popsicles.
