Question

Paul's mp3 player has a total of 852 songs. He has 4 different groups of songs. If he puts an equal number of songs in each group,how many songs will be in each group?

Answer 1

There will be 213 songs in each group.

Explanation:

Suppose, the number of songs in each group is
`x`

As he has 4 different groups of songs, so the total number of songs in all 4 groups will be:
`(4*x)= 4x`

Given that, the mp3 player has a total of 852 songs. So, the equation will be........

`4x=852\\ \\ x=(852)/(4)=213`

So, there will be 213 songs in each group.
