He had 40 pencils left after he gave away 8, so originally he had 40 + 8 pencils, which is 48.

Now, he bought 4 packages, which had a total of 48 pencils, so divide 48 by 4, which is 12. He had 12 pencils in each package.

To determine the solution arithmetically, first add 8 to 40, then divide 48 by 4.

To determine the solution algebraically, set up and solve the equation 40 = 4x - 8.

Each package contained 12 pencils.

Hope this helps

Find the perimeter of a square that is 3 3/4 inches on a side. 7 inches 15 inches 12 inches 30 inches
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

  15 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a polygon is the sum of the lengths of its sides. A square has 4 sides, all the same length. We can either add up the side lengths, or we can recognize that multiplication of one side's length by 4 is a useful alternative.

  perimeter = 4 × (3 3/4 in)

  = (4×3 +4×3/4) in

  = 12 in + 3 in = 15 in
