10. Mr. Hanson is preparing an activity for his
science classes. He has 3 boxes of popsicle sticks.
Each box has 60 sticks. He needs 480 sticks for all
of his classes. Which equation can Mr. Hanson use
to find b, the number of boxes he needs to purchase
to have enough sticks for his classes?
F. 480 - 60 x 3 = b
G. (180 + 60) -(60 + 3) = b
H. [480 - (60 x 3)] = 60 = b
I (60 x 3) + 60 = b

Respuesta :

Answer:

H

Step-by-step explanation:

Out of all of the answers provided, H seems like the equation that makes the most sense.

[tex](60 * 3) = 180[/tex]

[tex][480 - (180)] = 300[/tex]

[tex]300 = 60[/tex]

Make sure you divide 300 sticks by 60 sticks (box max) to get the number of boxes.

[tex]300 / 60 = 5[/tex]

So, Mr. Hanson would need to have 5 more boxes in order to get the total amount of 480 sticks.

From that, H would be considered the best equation that Mr. Hanson would use.
