Question

A school requires 2 iPads for every 5 students. How many iPads are needed for 145 students?

Answer 1

145/5 = 29
29 x 2 = 58
58 ipads .

Answer 2

58 iPads

Explanation:

To calculate how many iPads are needed for 145 students, we can use the given ratio of 2 iPads for every 5 students.

First, find out how many groups of 5 students are in 145 students by dividing 145 by 5:

`\sf (145\; students)/(5\; students/group) = 29\;groups\; of \;5 \;students`

Now, for each group of 5 students, we need 2 iPads. So, multiply the number of groups of 5 students by 2 to find the total number of iPads needed:

`\sf 29 \;groups *2\; iPads/group = 58\; iPads`

Therefore, 58 iPads are needed for 145 students.
