Lea has a bead kit, and she invited five friends to make bracelets. She gave each person, including herself, 20 beads. How many beads did the kit have initially? Represent the relationship between p and q in the form x/p = q

1 answer

Let x represent the initial number of beads in the kit.
Each person, including herself, received 20 beads, so there are 5+1=<<5+1=6>>6 people in total.
If each person received 20 beads, then the total number of beads given out is 20*6=<<20*6=120>>120 beads.
Since the initial number of beads is x, and 120 beads were given out, then we can represent this relationship as 120/x = 1. Answer: \boxed{\frac{x}{p}=q}.
