Answer 7

For a standarized test 360 #2 will be needed to distribute 3 pencils to every 8th grader. If one box contains 12 pencils, how many boxes will be needed for the standardized test?

Answer 8

If you need 360 pencils and they come 12 to a box, how many boxes (x) do you need?

Answer 9

\[12 \frac{\text { pencils}}{\cancel{\text{ box}}} \times x \cancel{ {\text { box}}} = 360 \text { pencils}\]

Answer 10

\[12x=360\]

Answer 11

so 12 times 30 equals 360 so x=360!

Answer 12

No, x=30
