Adam had some candy to give to his three children. He first took seven pieces for himself and then evenly

The expression is (c-7) / 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say Adam has c pieces of candy

He took seven pieces for himself which means we can write this as c-7

He then divided this amount between his 3 children (c-7)/3

(x-7)/3

Step-by-step explanation:

x is the amount of candy

x-7 is the amount that Adam got.

(x-7)/3 is the expression for how many pices each child received.

Answer : The expression will be

( c - 7 ) / 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say Adam has c pieces of candy

He took ten pieces for himself which means we can write this as c-7

He then divided this amount between his 3 children (c-7)/3

Adam took 7 pieces so subtract it from the total.
[tex]13 - 7 = 6[/tex]
He divided the rest to his 3 children
[tex]\frac{6}{3} = 2[/tex]
Each child recieved 2 candies.

First you do [tex]13-7[/tex] since he already took those for himself. Now u have to divide 6, the remainder, by 3 since there are 3 children. 6 divided by 3 = 2

So each child received 2 pieces of candy
