Question

Miss lubek put her 28 students into four equal groups. She gave each group 35 sheets of paper. How many sheets of paper did each student get?

Answer 1

Answer: The number of sheets of paper every student will get is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

Total number of students = 28

Number of groups = 4

Number of sheets of paper given to each group = 35

Total number of sheets of paper = $(35\times 4)=140$

To calculate the number of sheets of paper that every student got, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of sheets of paper every student got}=\frac{\text{Total number of sheets}}{\text{Total number of students}}$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Number of sheets of paper every student got}=\frac{140}{28}=5$

Hence, the number of sheets of paper every student will get is 5

Answer 2

Each student gets 5 sheets of paper

First what you do is you divide 24 by 4 which equals 7
then you divide 35 by 7 which is 5.
Hope this helps
