At least 5 bags of gummy bear bags are needed for each person to get 5 gummy bears.

The given parameters;

  • total number of people sharing the gummy bears, n = 8 people
  • number of gummy bears in each bag, = 9 gummy bears
  • number of gummy bears needed by each person = 5 gummy bears

The number of gummy bear bags needed to share 5 gummy bears to each person is calculated as follows;

let the number of gummy bears bag = x

[tex]\frac{9x}{8} = 5\\\\9x = 40\\\\x = \frac{40}{9} \\\\x = 4.4[/tex]
