Answer:
a) 14
b) 9
c) 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Part (a)
Given:
- 1 bag = 126 g of buttons
- Weight of Button A = 9 g
⇒ Number of Button As in one bag = 126 g ÷ 9 g = 14 buttons
Part (b)
Given:
- 1 bag = 126 g of buttons
- Weight of Button B = 14 g
⇒ Number of Button Bs in one bag = 126 g ÷ 14 g = 9 buttons
Part (c)
Given:
- The box contains 230 g of buttons
- The box contains the same number of each type of button
Let x = number of buttons of each type.
⇒ 9x+ 14x = 230
⇒ 23x = 230
⇒ x = 10
Therefore, there are 10 of each type of button in the box.
