Question

Cindy bought 20 stamps. This is 5 times the number of postcards that Yoshi bought. How many postcards did Yoshi buy

Answer 1

Answer:

4 postcards

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to divide the number of stamps by 5 to get the number of postcards because division is the opposite of multiplication.

20 / 5 = 4

Remember that if you see "x is y times the number of answer" or anything along those lines it means division.

Answer 2

Answer:

Yoshi bought 4 postcards.

Step-by-step explanation:

20 ÷ 5 = 4
