Question

There are twice as many chocolate donuts as strawberry donuts on a tray. If C stands for the number of chocolate donuts and S stands for the number of strawberry donuts, which equation describes this relationship?

Answer 1

c = 2s

Explanation:

Hi there,

Let me break this problem down for you:

"There are twice as many chocolate donuts as strawberry donuts"

The chocolate (c) is double the amount of strawberry (s).

To put it in another way, the number of (s) is half of that of (c).

The only equation that fulfills both of these statements is c = 2s.

Hope this answer was useful. Cheers.
