Question

A clothing store is donating socks to vatious charites. The store gave 6 regular packs and 6 value packs to a homless shelter, which contained a total of 402 pairs of socks. For foster children, the store donated 6 regular packs and 5 value packs, which equaled 354 paris. How many pairs of socks are in each pair.

Answer 1

There is 6 regular packs and 6 value packs so add those (6+6=12). Divide 12 by 2 (because there's 2 socks in a pair) and get 6. Then divide 402 by 6 and get 67 pairs. Do the same for the second location.
