Answer 1

Answer:

C. Scarlett shaded the multiples instead of the factors of 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Scarlett tried to shade all the factors of 15 on the hundred chart 15,45,75,30,60,90 What mistake did she make

She shaded 15,45,75,30,60,90 on the chart

Factors of 15 are 1, 3, 5 and 15

15, 45, 75, 30, 60, 90 are multiples of 15

That is,

15 × 1 = 15

15 × 3 = 45

15 × 5 = 75

15 × 2 = 30

15 × 4 = 60

15 × 6 = 90

Therefore Scarlett's mistake is:

C. Scarlett shaded the multiples instead of the factors of 15
