Answer:
324
Step-by-step explanation:
One case has 9 boxes.
One box has 36 chocolates.
This equation would answer the amount in a case, case = chocolate*boxes
So there would be 36*9 chocolates, and that equals 324 in one case
Given:
3 kids
72 is the product of their ages.
There is a youngest child.
This means that all three are of different ages. We need to factor 72 into 3 integers.
Let us use prime factorization:
72 ÷ 2 = 36
36 ÷ 2 = 18
18 ÷ 2 = 9
9 ÷ 3 = 3
Prime factors are: 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 OR 2³ x 3²
3 ages.
eldest = 3³ = 9
middle = 2² = 4
youngest = 2¹ = 2
2 x 4 = 8
8 x 9 = 72
X is less then or equal to 1<u /><em /><u />
34 - 6 = 28
28 x 8 = 224
After making the 6 whole sheet of paper cards for her closest friends Aimi will have 28 pieces of paper left.
Since she wants to use 1/8 of a sheet per valentine (think of it as one piece of paper can make 8 valentines) you can do 28 pieces of paper multiplied by 8 which gives you 224 valentines.
