Question

Emerson needs to divide 48 packages of stickers among 6 friends. there are 52 stickers in each package. how many stickers will each friend get? write an equation to solve the problem.

Answer 1

52(48 ÷ 6)=416 stickers per friend because 48 packages split by 6 people is 8 and 8 times 52 equals 416

Answer 2

48packages/6friends = 8packages

Because there are 52 stickers in each package, you have to divide the number of stickers by 8 (number of packages per friend)


8x52= 416
each friend receives 416 stickers
