Asquirrel family collected 172 nuts to store for the winter. they spread the nuts out evenly among their 6 favorite spots. the squirrels ate the last few nuts that didn't divide evenly . sadly, a crow stole half the nuts from one of the spots. how many nuts did the crow steal?

14

Step-by-step explanation:

172/6 = 28 with four as a remainder. if each group had 28 nuts and if the crow stole half of one of them, 28/2 is the answer which is 14.

steps:

1. 172/6= 28.66 repeating.

2. 26.66 is also 28 and 4 remainder

3. 28/2 = 14

14 is the answer

part a: 1.08

part b: 27.59
