Question

Regina has 3 bags of marbles. There are 25 marbles in each bag. She wants to put an equal number of marbles into 5 bags. Which expression would show how many marbles can go in each bag?

Answer 1

Answer:

(3 × 25)/5 marbles can go in each bag

Explanation:

Number of bags Regina has = 3

Number of marbles in each bag = 25

So, total number of marbles = 3 × 25

Number of marbles in each bag, if divided equally into 5 bags = (3 × 25)/5

Solving the expression,

(3 × 25)/5

= 75/5

= 15

So, the each bag has 15 marbles if they are equally divided into 5 bags.

Answer 2
