Both Lori and Jayden are correct.
Lori's equation 6c = 72 simplifies to c = 72/6 which equals c = 12.
Jayden's equation c = 72/2 simplifies to c = 36.
Both equations represent the situation correctly, but they have different solutions. Lori's equation is correct if the context is multiplying 6 by a number to get 72. Jayden's equation is correct if the context is dividing 72 by 2 to get the value of c.
lori writes the equation 6c=72 to represent the situation jayden writes the equation c=72/2 to represent the situation who is correct

how many cards are in each pack
To solve for the number of cards in each pack, we can use Lori's equation, c = 12 (where c represents the number of cards in each pack).
Therefore, there are 12 cards in each pack.
Therefore, there are 12 cards in each pack.
