a - b = 10

a + b = 31

(a - b) + (a + b) = 10 + 31

2a = 41

a = 41/2

41/2 - b = 10

b = 21/2

3a - 2b = 3(41/2) - 2(21/2) = 81/2

Margret is inviting 3 friends to a party. If each friend will get 8 cookies and each box has 6 cookies, how many boxes does Marg

Alisiya [41]

Answer:

Margret need to get 4 boxes of cookies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total friends = 3

Cookies each friend will get = 8

Each box has cookies = 6 cookies

How many boxes does Margret need to get?

Total cookies will be= Total friends x Cookies each friend will get

Total cookies will be= 3 x 8 = 24

If one box has 6 cookies and we need total 24 cookies so, divide 24 by 6 to get number of boxes

Number of boxes = Total cookies/ number of cookies in one box

Number of boxes = 24/6

Number of boxes = 4

So, Margret need to get 4 boxes of cookies.
