Question
Sam is buying packages with 9 beads each. His mom bought him 63 more beads. Now, he has 153 beads. How many packages did he buy? Use algebra to determine the answer.(1 point)

1 answer

Let x be the number of packages Sam bought.

The total number of beads Sam has can be represented by the equation: 9x + 63 = 153

Subtract 63 from both sides:

9x = 90

Divide by 9 on both sides:

x = 10

Therefore, Sam bought 10 packages.
