Question

Sebastian bought a 30-pack of mechanical pencils and plans to give the same number of pencils each to 6 friends. Which equation can he use to find p, the number of pencils each friend will receive?


`p+6 = 30\\p-6 = 30\\6p = 30\\(p)/(6) = 30`

Answer 1

`6p = 30`

Explanation:

Answer 2

1.)
`6p=30`

2.) Sebastian bought a pack of 30 mechanical pencils and plans to give the same number of pencils each to 6 friends.

Let a varible such as p be the number of pencils given by him to each students.

Now we need to find p we need to divide 30 by 6, we get

`p = (30)/(6)`

`to`

`6p = 30`

Thus, the equation can he use to find p, the number of pencils each friend will receive is:
`6p = 30`
