1. Gracie and her son Landon are celebrating spring with an egg hunt! Gracie has hidden eggs filled with candy for Landon to find.

(a) Landon finds a total of 27 eggs. One third of the eggs have 4 pieces of candy, the rest have 2 pieces of
candy. How many pieces of candy did Landon get?

(b) Gracie offers him a deal: he can either have three pieces of candy now, or if he waits until after lunch he
can have one-seventh of his candy. Which way gets Landon the most candy?
