After a party you you have 2/5 of the brownies you made left over there are 16 brownies left how many brownies did you make for the party

24 is the correct answer. If you find it easier to follow the rule for finding a whole when given its part (16), and the equivalent fraction (2/3). You divide the part by its fraction ... Meaning 16: 2/3=16/1 x 3/2 = 24 (remember when dividing by fractions, reciprocate (flip) the fraction and change the division sign to a multiplication).
