Give the step-by-step reasoning process and then the final answer. Mrs. Crocker made 11 pieces of fried chicken for Lyndee and her friends. If Lyndee only ate one piece but each of her friends got to eat 2 pieces, how many friends did Lyndee have over?
After Lyndee ate, there were 11 - 1 = 10 pieces of chicken left. Lyndee had 10 / 2 = 5 friends over.
The final answer: 5.
