Answer: 10 jackets


Step 1: Write an equation

Before we can write an equation, it’s important to acknowledge what we are trying to solve at this point in the problem.

We should create an equation that will bring us from 20 bottles to 200 bottles. This will tell us how many jackets we will have, since 20 bottles make 1 jacket. This will bring us our answer. Let’s write an equation, with 200 equaling 20 times an unknown number.

20x= 200

Step 2: Solve equation

Now let’s solve for x which will tell us how many jackets we will get. Let’s solve now by isolating x. We need to divide each term by 20.

20x= 200
x= 10
