Correct. It actually is an easy riddle, but in 8th 7th grade we had to think of our own riddles in math but I wasn't very original, altough very surprised that our teacher couldn't figure it out instantly, it took her about 15 minutes. How can she call herself a math teacher?

ok you have alot of people at a party and you have a jar full of gum drops. one person comes along and steals 1/3 of the gumdrops. then another person sees the gumdrop jar and this person steals 1/3 of them. then you have a third person come along and this third person steals 1/3 of the gumdrops. how many gumdrops were there originally if 40 are left after the third person steals his share?
