Question

Explain how to write and evaluate an algebraic expression that represents the situation. The blueberries were divided equally into six bowls. Evaluate when b = 210.

Answer 1

B\6=210. Because you're dividing the berries between six bowls, so you'd have to divide.

Answer 2

The variable is the number of blueberries, the operation is division, and the constant is 6. Write the division expression as the fraction, b/6 . To evaluate, substitute 210 in for the variable, b, and simplify. 210 divided by 6 is 35. So each bowl has 35 blueberries.
