Question

The 24 students in Mr. Browns homeroom sold 72 magazine subscriptions. The 28 students in Mrs. Garcia homeroom sold 98 magazine subscription. Whosee homeroom sold more magazinesubscriptions per student?

Answer 1

Mrs. Garcia's homeroom sold more magazine subscriptions per student. You can divide the number of magazine subscriptions by the number of students for each homeroom. For Mr. Brown's homeroom you get 72/24 which is 3 per student. For Mrs. Garcia's homeroom you get 98/28 which is 3.5 per student. Since 3.5 is greater than 3, you know that Mrs. Garcia's homeroom sold more per student.

Answer 2

72/24=3
98/28=3.5
