Question

A textbook company sells teacher editions

and student editions in package deals.
Each package includes 3 teacher editions
for every 65 student editions. Which
combination could a school order?
A.
9 teacher to 260 student editions
B. 12 teacher to 325 student editions
12 teacher to 260 student editions

Answer 1

C 12 teacher to 260 student editions

Answer 2

C. 12 teacher editions and 260 student editions

Explanation:

We can use division to solve this problem

65 ÷ 3 = 21.66... we can round this to 22 student ones we get 1 teacher copy.

A. 260 ÷ 9 = 28.99... we can round to 29 students ones we get 1 teacher copy so this one isn't correct.

B. 325 ÷ 12= 27.083... we can round to 27 students ones we get 1 teacher copy so this one isn't correct.

C. 260 ÷ 12 = 65 ÷ 3 = 21.66... we can round this to 22 student ones we get 1 teacher copy so this option is correct

C

Is the only correct option
