Question: Bingley has 5 bracelets. Kelly gives Bingley a fourth of her 16 bracelets. Then Bingley gives a third of his bracelets to his little sister. How many bracelets does Bingley have remaining? Think carefully first, then make a decision:
Kelly gives Bingley 16 / 4 = 4 bracelets. Bingley has 5 + 4 = 9 bracelets. Bingley gives his little sister 9 / 3 = 3 bracelets. In the end, Bingley has 9 - 3 = 6 bracelets remaining. So the answer is 6.
