Question

PLEASE HELP!!!.

Translate the phrase into a variable expression. Use the letter m to name the variable. If necessary, use the asterisk ( * ) for multiplication and the slash ( / ) for division.... the total number of Swedish meatballs split 7 ways ...

Answer 1

I believe the answer is m÷7
m represents the total of meatballs since we don't know how many there are and they are split 7 ways and the only way to do that is by dividing m by 7

Answer 2

The variable expression is given by:

m/7

Explanation:

We have to translate the phrase into variable expression.

The phrase is given by:

.... the total number of Swedish meatballs split 7 ways ...

So, let m denote the total number of Swedish meatballs.

We are asked to split the total number of Swedish meatballs in 7 ways.

Splitting--

Splitting is a procedure of dividing something into parts.

Hence, we have to divide m into 7 parts.

Hence, the variable expression will be given by:

m/7
