Breads

Several pieces of bread were in the store. Half of them, plus half of the bread, bought a cookbook. Half of the remaining bread, plus half of the bread, was bought by Mr. Novák. Ms. Small bought the last bread. How many breads were in the store at the beginning?

Correct answer:

n =  7

Step-by-step explanation:


(n/2 + 1/2) + (n-(n/2 + 1/2))/2 + 1/2 + 1 = n

0.5n = 3.5


n = 3.5/0.5 = 7

n = 7
