Abby baked 48 dinner rolls and divided them evenly into bags. Let b represent the number of bags. Write an algebraic expression to represent the number of dinner rolls in each back

Answer 1

The factors of 48:
2, 24
3, 16
4, 12
6, 8

Answer 2

I think it might be asking to say that the variable b represents the number of bags.

Answer 3

We don't have enough information to know the number of bags. It could be any of the 8 numbers above.

Check to see if there's more information given in the problem.

Answer 4

I think it is trying to say to write an algebraic expression. So you don't have to have a constant for the number of bags, but a variable.

Answer 5

Your expression is, 48/b because you are splitting 48 rolls into bags, which we do not have an exact number as of right now.
