Answer:

Is there more to this question? The only math question I can think of that would go with this is for us to tell what a half dozen is equal to. If that is the case, the answer is 6.

Here is an example:
Distributive property of division: (a + b) : c = a : c + b : c

96 : 6 = (90 + 6) : 6 = 90 : 6 + 6 : 6 = (60 + 30) : 6 + 1
= 60 : 6 + 30 : 6 + 1 = 10 + 5 + 1 = 16

Lee sold 60 magazine

Step-by-step explanation:

Terrence and Lee were selling magazines for a charity

In the first week, Terrance sold 30% more than Lee
In the second week, Terrance sold 12 magazines, but Lee did not sell any
Terrance sold 50% more than Lee by the end of the second week

We need to find how many magazines Lee sold

Assume that Lee sold x magazines

∵ Terrance sold 30% more than Lee in the first week

∵ Lee sold x magazines in the first week

- Find 30% of x and add it to x to find how many magazines

Terrance sold

∵ Terrance sold = 30% × x + x

∴ Terrance sold = $(30)/(100)$ × x + x = 0.3 x + x

∴ Terrance sold = 1.3 x magazines in the first week

∵ Terrance sold 12 magazines in the second week

- Add 1.3 x to 12 to find the number of magazines that Terrence

sold in the two weeks

∴ Terrence sold 1.3 x + 12 magazines in the two weeks

∵ Lee did not sell any in the next week

∴ Lee sold x magazines in the two weeks

∵ Terrance sold 50% more than Lee by the end of the 2nd week

- Equate 1.3 x + 12 by the sum of x and 50% of x

∴ 1.3 x + 12 = 50% × x + x

∵ 50% × x = $(50)/(100)$ × x = 0.5 x

∴ 1.3 x + 12 = 0.5 x + x

- Add the like terms in the right hand side

∴ 1.3 x + 12 = 1.5 x

- Subtract 1.3 x from both sides

∴ 12 = 0.2 x

- Divide both sides by 0.2

∴ 60 = x

Lee sold 60 magazine
