Lorrie has 42 coins. She will put them in stacks. Each stack will have 6 coins. She wants to know how many stacks she can make.
Which shows two ways to find the answer?
O A
x6 = 42 or 6 x 42 =
O B. 6 x 42 =
or 42 +6=0
OC, 426 = or 6X = 42
OD
: 6 = 42 or 42+
= 6

Respuesta :

Lorrie can make 7 stacks and equation used is 6x = 42 or [tex]x = \frac{42}{6}[/tex]

Solution:

Given that,

Lorrie has 42 coins

She will put them in stacks

Each stack will have 6 coins

Therefore,

1 stack = 6 coins

Dividing 42 by 6, we will get the number of stacks she can make

Thus, number of stacks is given as:

[tex]Number\ of\ stacks = \frac{42}{6}[/tex]

Let "x" be the number of stacks

[tex]x = \frac{42}{6}\\\\6x = 42[/tex]

[tex]Number\ of\ stacks = 7[/tex]

Thus, she can make 7 stacks and equation used is 6x = 42 or [tex]x = \frac{42}{6}[/tex]
