Question

Kim made 40 cookies. She ate 1/4 of the cookies and then gave the rest to her six friends. If Kim gave each of her friends the same number of cookies, how many cookies did each friend get?

Answer 1

Each friend got 5 cookies.

Answer 2

Kim ate 40 * 1/4 = <<40*1/4=10>>10 cookies.
Kim gave away 40 - 10 = <<40-10=30>>30 cookies.
Kim's six friends each got 30 / 6 = <<30/6=5>>5 cookies. Answer: \boxed{5}.

Answer 3

Yes, that is correct. Each friend received 5 cookies.
