Answer:

28 groups of 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

That would be the number of possible combinations of 2 out of 8 , written as 8C2.

8C2  = 8! / (8-2)! 2!

A quick way of working this out is  8*7 / 2*1 . The above formula simplifies to this.   Note the numerator starts with 8 then you  multiply by  7 (8-1). The number of values in the numerator depends on the combination value ( in this case it is 2). The denominator here is 2*1.

So the answer is 8*7 / 2*1 = 28 ways.

Other examples of combinations:

7C4  =  7*5*4*3 / 4*3*2*1

10C3 = 10*9*8 / 3*2*1.

I hope this helps.

Determine the cost of 5 pounds of bananas if 2 pounds cost $1.16
user100 [1]
$3.90
You have to take $1.16 and multiply it by 2 so that you get the price for 4 pounds then divide 1.16 by 2. Then you have to add together the totals and you'll get the price for 5 pounds.
Or
You could take $1.16 divide it by 2 to get the unit price then multiply (or add it together 5 times) it by 5 to get a total of $3.90
