1 answer

To find out how many pieces of each color of construction paper Mrs. Bowlin had, we can divide the total number of pieces of construction paper by the number of colors.

Given:

  • Total pieces of construction paper = 2,040
  • Number of colors = 4

Now, we perform the calculation:

\[ \text{Pieces of each color} = \frac{\text{Total pieces}}{\text{Number of colors}} = \frac{2040}{4} = 510 \]

So, Mrs. Bowlin had 510 pieces of each color of construction paper.
