Mrs. Sherman made a dozen bread rolls for breakfast. After feeding her 6 children with one each, she broke each of the remaining rolls into 8 pieces and fed them to the chickens. How many pieces of rolls did she feed to the chickens?
How to solve this?
After feeding her children, Mrs. Sherman was left with 12 - 6 = 6 rolls
She fed 6 x 8 = 48 pieces of rolls to the chickens.
