Question

Dorianna packed enough blouses, skirts, and belts in her suitcase to make 24 different outfits. If she packed 4 skirts and 2 belts, how many blouses did she pack?

Answer 1

4 skirts × 2 belt × y blouses = 24 outfits

24 : 8 = 3

3 blouses

4 × 2 × 3 = 24

Answer 2

24=2*4*x
24=8*x
x=24:8
x=3 blouses
