Which equation can be used to solve the problem? How many shelves that each hold 16 books are needed to hold a total of 112 books? A. 16 + s = 112 B. 16s = 112 C. 16 ÷ s = 112 D. s ÷ 16 = 112

OpenStudy (holly00d1248):

i would say B beause you have to multiply 16 by some number to get 112

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B is correct
