Answer:
Each student gets 5 bottles of paint
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 4 sets of paint
each set has 10 bottles of paint
So in order to find out how many bottles of paint there are in total, we will need to multiply them. Why multiply? Well, only when we repeatedly add 10 four times considering that there are four sets, we will find the total number of bottles of paint. 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 = 40 is the same as 10 x 4 = 40.
To find out how many bottles of paint each student gets, we will need to divide 40 by 8. 40/8 = 5.
Therefore, each student gets 5 bottles of paint.
