Question

A box of seeds contains p packets. Each packet contains s seeds. Which equation can be used to find the number of seeds in a box (b)?

(A) p= sb
(B) p= s/b
(C) b= ps
(D) b= p/s

Answer 1

"c" b=p×s

Explanation:

we are trying to find what b is .

so we can eliminate answers A & B

to find how many seeds are in a box we have to multiply how many packets there are by how many seeds are in a packet

example if there are 10 packets & you have 5 seeds in each packet then you would have 50 seeds in one box

B=p×s

B=10×5

B=50
