Miss Johnson has in her classroom closet 32 boxes with 245 counters. She would like to redistribute them and share them equally in 25 bags for a class activity. How many counters will she put in each bag?

Respuesta :

Miss Johnson will put 314 counters in each bag

The number of boxes, and the number of counter are given as:

[tex]Box = 32[/tex]

[tex]Counter =245[/tex]

Start by calculating the total number of counter

[tex]Total = Box \times Counter[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Total = 32\times 245[/tex]

[tex]Total = 7840[/tex]

To redistribute 7840 counters in 25 bags, we simply divide the number of counter by the number of bags.

So, we have:

[tex]Counter = \frac{7840}{25}[/tex]

[tex]Counter = 313.6[/tex]

Approximate

[tex]Counter = 314[/tex]

Hence, she will put 314 counters in each bag
