Abe had some sweets.
He gave half of his sweets to Ben.
Ben gave one third of his sweets to Charlie.
Charlie gave one quarter of her sweets to Dawn.
Dawn gave one fifth of her sweets to Eddy.
Eddy received 6 sweets.
How many sweets did Abe have?
You would do 6 x 5 = 30 to get how many dawn had Then you’d do 30 x 4 = 120 to get how many Charlie had Then you’d do 120 x 3 = 360 to get how many Ben had Then 360 x 2 = 720 to get the original amount
