What is division?
Division is the process of splitting a number or an amount into equal parts. Division is one of the four basic operations of arithmetic, the ways that numbers are combined to make new numbers. The other operations are addition, subtraction, and multiplication .
here, we have,
Let x = the jujubes Sam had
he gave x/2 to jen
jen eats** half** of it = 1/2(x/2)
= x/4
the remaining x/4 he **gave **to kyle
kyle kept 8 and gave 10 to Kim
so
x/4 - 8 = 10
x/4 = 18
x =72
so, we get,
thus jen had 36 jujubes
jen eat 18 j ujubes

Hence, The solution is, jen eat 18 jujubes .

Jen ate 18 jujubes. This was calculated by finding that Sam originally had 72 jujubes, and after giving half to Jen and her eating half of what she received, we determined her total consumption. Therefore, the answer is 18 jujubes.
