Answer:
The number of coins Julia found is 5
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the total number of gold coins collected divided by the number of people collecting is 6. So we can set up an equation:
[tex]\frac{6+5+6+8+x}{5}=6[/tex]
this simplifies to:
[tex]\frac{25+x}{5}=6[/tex]
Using the multiplication property of equality and multiplying both sides by we get:
25+x=30
Then finally, using the subtraction property of equality we get our answer:
x=5
