There are five friends. One person brings 12 pieces of candy, another person brings h pieces of candy, and a third friend doubled the amount of candy. When it’s evenly divided, each friend got 10 pieces of candy. What is the value of h?
I liked the way when you described each person as friends. You should change the word to one friend because they are all friends. June and I (Ki Hwan) do not get this word problem because it doesn't say about the fourth and fifth person.
It got kind of confusing at the 'evenly divided' part. You could just say "The amount of candies were divided by 5". You could make it a little bit more in interesting. Almost everyone's is candies or chocolate.
We thought your word problem was not bad, but it has room for improvement. We liked the part where you explained there was 5 friends and how they divided the candies among the five friends, but we got confused at the part where you mentioned two friends bringing different amount of candies. But after we read it a few times we got your point.
