Mary only has 8 screws on hand and needs to buy 2 times more to fix her sink. When she is beginning repairs, she has to split the screws into four sections. How many are in each pile?
Mary originally had 8 screws, then went to buy twice more screws and ended up with 8+(8*2)=<<8+8*2=24>>24 of them.
She then split them into four piles of 24/4=<<24/4=6>>6.
