Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the 4 people be A, B, C and D. If each of them shakes hands with another person exactly one time then that means

A shakes with B, C and D. So 3 handshakes

B already shakes with A. So B shakes with C and D. 2 handshakes

C already shakes with A and B. So C shakes with D only. 1 handshake.

D already shake hand with all above.

Total handshakes: 3 + 2 + 1 = 6

Chantelle has 56 stickers. she will give all of the stickers to 8 friends. each friend will receive the same number of stickers.
Furkat [3]

Chantelle can use the following equation,

n = (Number of stickers) / (Number of friends)

or n = 56/8

Given Information

Chantelle has 56 stickers

⇒ Number of stickers = 56

She will distribute all of the stickers to 8 friends

⇒ Number of friends = 8

The number of stickers each friend will get = n

We have to form an equation for n.

Forming the Equation

Equation for  the number of stickers to be given to each friend is as follows,

n = (Number of stickers) / (Number of friends)

n = 56/8

n = 7

Therefore, Chantelle needs to give 7 stickers to each of her 8 friends. And, the equation used to find this count, n is n = (Number of stickers) / (Number of friends) or n =56/8

LuckyWell [14K]
2 / 15

This is simpler than you think. Just take the square root of the denominator and of the numerator and stick it back into fraction form. The square root of 4 is 2 and the square root of 225 is 15. Voila: 2 / 15.
