A squirrel family collected 72nuts to the store for the winter.They spread teh nuts out evenly between their 6 favorite locations,sadly,a crow stole half the nuts from one of the location. How many nuts did the crow steal?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The crow stole 6 nuts

Step-by-step explanation:


If the total number of nuts is 72, then spread evenly between 6 locations, you must divide 72 by 6 to find out how many nuts are in each location.

72/6=12

If the crow stole half of the total amount of nuts in one location, you should divide 12 by 2 to get your answer.

12/2=6

The crow stole 6 nuts.
