Question 38947: David has 50 candies. Today he eats 1/5 of his candies, and tomorrow he eats 1/2 of what is left. What will he have by the end of tomorrow? Answer by fractalier(2101) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let's do it step by step.
Today he has 50. He eats 1/5 of them, or 10. That leaves 40.
If he eats half what's left, that would be half of 40, or 20.
So 20 is what's left.
