Question

Mrs. Bowlin organized the markers into sets. If there were 9 markers

in each set, how many sets of markers did Mrs. Bowlin create? there are 567 markers

Answer 1

63 sets

Explanation:

(567 markers)/(9 markers/set) = 567/9 sets = 63 sets

__

The total number of markers in all the sets (s) will be ...

9s = 567

Divide both sides of this equation by 9 to find the number of sets:

9s/9 = 567/9

s = 63

Mrs. Bowlin created 63 sets of markers.
