Answer:
A, C, and E
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the equation, you would divide both sides by 5 to get <em>t</em> alone. the remaining equation would be <em>t</em>=35.
To figure out <em>t</em>, you need to do division, therefore the scenario requires <u>division</u>.
A. You can do 175 tons of food ÷ 5 tons a day. <em>t</em> represents the number of days. Therefore, 175÷5=35 days. <u>(division)</u>
B. This would be $175 - $5 since Thomas gave his sister $5. Thomas is left with $170 in winnings. <u>(subtraction)</u>
C. 175 minutes are used to grade 5 tests. 175 minutes ÷ 5 tests = 35 minutes spend grading 1 test. <u>(division)</u>
D. Mary's bookshelf holds 175 books and the top shelf only holds 5. Therefore, 175 books - 5 books on the top shelf = 170 books on the bottom shelf (unless there are more shelves). <u>(subtraction)</u>
E. 175 days ÷ 5 gallons of paint a day. 175÷5 = 35 gallons of paint used. <u>(division)</u>
