c. 420
d. 430

Answer 1

Luciana got 420 buttered popcorn jelly beans by dividing the total number of jelly beans (3,360) by the number of flavors (8).

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how many buttered popcorn jelly beans Luciana got, we need to divide the total number of jelly beans by the number of different flavors. The total number of jelly beans is 3,360, and there are 8 different flavors.

So, we calculate:

1. Divide 3,360 by 8.
2. 3,360 ÷ 8 = 420.

Therefore, Luciana got 420 buttered popcorn jelly beans.

To find the number of buttered popcorn jelly beans Luciana got, we need to determine the equal number of jelly beans for each flavor. There are 8 different flavors in the bag, so we divide the total number of jelly beans (3,360) by 8 to find the number of jelly beans for each flavor: 3,360 / 8 = 420. Therefore, Luciana got 420 buttered popcorn jelly beans.
