Question

Frank needs 34 stickers for his art project. The stickers he wants come in bags of 4. How many bags does he need?

Answer 1

From the given information we can formulate the following relationship:

`(x)/(34)=(1)/(4)`

Where x is the number of bags required in order to get 34 stickers.

From this expression, we can solve for x, to get:

`\begin{gathered} (x)/(34)=(1)/(4) \\ (x)/(34)*34=(1)/(4)*34 \\ x*(34)/(34)=(34)/(4) \\ x*1=8.5 \\ x\approx9 \end{gathered}`

Then, to get 34 stickers, we need 9 bags
