Mai gave half of her brownies, and then half a brownie more, to Kiran. Then she gave half of what was left,
and half a brownie more, to Tyler. That left her with one remaining brownie.

Can someone please help me with this problem, I really need help.

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

all we know is that she had 1 brownie at the end, in the end she gave half her brownie to tyler, so add one who will get 1 1/2, before that she split her brownies between her friends, so multiply 1 1/2 by 2 and you will get 3, before that she gave 1/2 a brownie to Kiran, so we would add 1/2 to 3 and get 3 1/2, before that she first split it in half for a her friends, so at last,  multiply 3 1/2 by 2 and you will geet 7 as your final answer.

The answer would be 7!

 

You would take 1 and add 1/2 to it

= 1 1/2

Then, multiply by 2

= 3

Then add 1/2 to that

= 3 1/2

Then multiply 2 one more time

= 7

This is because Mai gave half of her brownie and then half more of her brownie to each person she gave it to

So you would add 1 + 1/2 and then multiply by 2

Since she did this to 2 people you would repeat one more time!

Hope this helped!
