Question

Answer 1

Abigail could use 106 pages in the art book for her drawings.

Explanation:

Given:

drawings of dragons = 632

drawings of puppies = 216

Number of drawings Each page can hold = 8

We need to find number of pages she could use in the art books.

Now we will first find the Total Number of drawings need to be held in art book.

Total Number of drawings is the sum of number of drawings of dragons and number of drawings of puppies.

framing in equation form we get;

Total Number of drawings = 632 + 216 = 648

Now number of pages can be calculated by dividing Total Number of drawings with Number of drawings Each page can hold.

Framing in equation form we get;

number of pages =
`(648)/(8) =106 \ pages`

Hence Abigail could use 106 pages in the art book for her drawings.
