Answer:1. what could have been the greatest number of friends who received marbles from Randy? 122. How did you know? 12 > 153. How many did each of his friend received? 31 marbles eachStep-by-step explanation:1. 12 is a whole number that is less than 15 that is also divisible by 3722. Same reason as number 13. Dividing 372 by 12 gives us 31. We cannot use 14 as it gives us 26.57 and a marble is a whole, thus, solid/whole objects cannot be used as decimals.
