To find out how many baskets Vance made, we can substitute the given value of Valorie's baskets (v) into the equation:
65 = 5n
Now, divide both sides of the equation by 5 to solve for n:
n = 65 / 5
n = 13
Therefore, Vance made 13 baskets, so the correct answer is A. 13
Valorie made five times more baskets than her brother, Vance.
The equation v = 5n, where v represents the number of baskets Valorie made, and n represents the number of baskets Vance made, shows this relationship.
If Valorie made 65 baskets, how many baskets did Vance make?
A.
13
B.
60
C.
