Question

FIRST ONE TO ANSWER GETS BRAINLIEST Henry divided his socks into five equal groups. Let s represent the total number of socks. Which expression and solution represent the number of socks in each group if s=20?
A. s/5; when s=20, the number of socks in each group is 4.

B. s/5; when s=20, the number of socks in each group is 15.

C. s-5; when s=20, the number of socks in each group 4.

D. s-5; when s=20, the number of socks in each group 15. ⊕∧⊕

Answer 1

Answer: There are 20 socks in the first case and there are 75 socks in the second case.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of equal groups = 5

Let the total number of socks be 's'.

According to question, expression will be

Now, Suppose number of socks in each group = 4

So, it will become,

Suppose number of socks in each group = 15

So, Total number of socks become

Hence, there are 20 socks in the first case and there are 75 socks in the second case.
