A store sells two different packages of glue sticks as described below. Package A : 18 glue sticks. Package B : 12 glue sticks.

Answer 1

Package A:
`g=18p` and Package B:
`g=12p`

Explanation:

Here is the complete question: A store sells two different packages of glue sticks as described below. Package A : 18 glue sticks. Package B : 12 glue sticks. Write an equation for package A and B that represents the total number of glue sticks is "g" in "p" package.

Given: There are 2 packages .

Package A has 18 glue sticks

Package B has 12 glue sticks

As given let "g" be the total number of glue sticks in "p" packages.

Package A:

Total number of glue sticks in "P" packages=
`Total\ number\ of\ glue* p`

∴
`g=18* p= 18p`

∴
`g=18p`

Package B:

Total number of glue sticks in "P" packages=
`Total\ number\ of\ glue* p`

∴
`g=12* p= 12p`

∴
`g=12p`
