Question

One ice cream cone costs $2. ron buys m ice cream cones for $24. which equation, when solved, will give the value of m?A. m × 24 = 2B. m + 24 = 2C. m × 2 = 24 D. m + 2 = 24

Answer 1

If one ice cream cone cost $2 and Ron buys m ice creams cones, the total cost for those m ice creams cones are:

2m

now, since buys m ice cream cones for $24, the above equation becomes:

2m=24

so that, we can conclude that the correct answer is:

C. m × 2 = 24
