Lizzy: Henley bought 300 candies and shared them with her two brothers. However, they realized 40% of them were sour, and they had to separate those out. If they then shared the good candies equally, how many candies did each get?.
Me: Hmmm, let me think. I think this is the detailed solution:

If the number of candies was 300, and 40% percent were sour, then there were 40 / 100 * 300 = 120 sour candies. The number of good candies was 300 - 120 = 180. The number of people who received candy is Henley, 1 + 2 brothers = 3 people. if they divided the good candies equally, each person got 180 / 3 = 60 candies. Final answer: 60.
