There are two boxes of Lego pieces. One box has 200 pieces and the other box has 115 pieces. Which of the following best describes how 4 people will divide the Lego pieces as evenly as possible?

three people will get 77 pieces
One person will get 76 pieces

Three people will get 78 pieces
One person will get 77 pieces

Three people will get 79 pieces
One person will get 78 pieces

Three people will get 76 pieces
One person will get 75 pieces

The answer is C: three people will get 79 pieces and one person will get 78 pieces.
79x3=237
237+78=315
There were 315 total pieces (200+115) so it has to be C.
Hope this helps!
