Let’s solve each problem one by one, step by step.

Problem 1: Tom’s baseball cards
Tom had 114 cards.
He kept 10 for himself.
So he shared:
114 - 10 =
104 cards
He shared them evenly among 8 friends.
So each friend got:
104 ÷ 8 =
13 cards
✔ Check: 8 × 13 = 104 → correct.

Problem 2: Teacher’s crayons
7 packets with 9 crayons each:
7 × 9 =
63 crayons
5 packets with 10 crayons each:
5 × 10 =
50 crayons
Total crayons:
63 + 50 =
113 crayons
✔ Check: 63 + 50 = 113 → correct.

Problem 3: Mr. Smith’s cookies
3 trays × 36 cookies per tray =
3 × 36 =
108 cookies total
He divided them into 4 bags evenly:
108 ÷ 4 =
27 cookies per bag
✔ Check: 4 × 27 = 108 → correct.

Problem 4: Pizza shop cooks
Orders:
Pepperoni: 4
Vegetable: 97
Cheese: 335
Total pizzas:
4 + 97 = 101
101 + 335 =

4 cooks made equal amounts:
436 ÷ 4 =
109 pizzas per cook
✔ Check: 4 × 109 = 436 → correct.
