Given the statement:
Beth has 28 math problems for homework. She has 4 times as many problems as her sister, Mary.
Determine the equations that show how many problems Mary (m) has.
Solution:
Since Beth has 4 times as may problems for homework as her sister Mary, then if Beth have 28 math problems, We can solve for Mary's number of problems by dividing 28 with 4.
28 / 4 = m
Final answer:
d.) 28/4 =m
