Mr. Franklin divided 24 donuts into a box. He put the donuts into 8 boxes. Choose the numbers to complete the partial equation. (1 point) 24 ÷ Choose = 3

1 answer

To complete the equation \( 24 \div \text{Choose} = 3 \), you need to find the number that, when you divide 24 by it, equals 3.

You can set up the equation as follows:

\[ 24 \div \text{Choose} = 3 \]

To find "Choose," you can multiply both sides of the equation by "Choose":

\[ 24 = 3 \times \text{Choose} \]

Now, divide both sides by 3:

\[ \text{Choose} = \frac{24}{3} \]

Calculating that gives:

\[ \text{Choose} = 8 \]

So, the completed equation is:

\[ 24 \div 8 = 3 \]
