To find the number of pages needed, Mandi can use the expression:
Number of pages = Total stamps / Stamps per page
Number of pages = 42 / 8
Number of pages = 5.25
Since Mandi cannot have a fraction of a page, she will need to round up to the nearest whole number. Therefore, Mandi will need 6 pages to hold all of her stamps in the folder.
Mandi has 42 stamps. She wants to put her stamps in a folder. She can put 8 stamps on each page. Which expression can Mandi use to find the number of pages needed?
