Question

. Mandy and 6 of her teammates each sold an equal number of

shirts to raise money for their tennis team. If a total of 56 shirts
were sold, how many shirts did each person sell? Explain.

Answer 1

8

Explanation:

56 shirts were sold, and including Mandy, 7 people sold them.

7 * x = 56

(7x)/7=56/7 (canceling out the 7 to get x alone)

x=8

So basically just 56 divided by 7
