Question
Breanne cut 350 fresh flowers to make bouquets. If she wants to place an equal number of flowers in each bouquet, how many groups should she use? A. 2 groups B. 4 groups C. 6 groups D. 9 groups
Solution
To answer this question, we need to find out which of the given options (2, 4, 6, 9 groups) can divide 350 without leaving any remainder.
Step 1: Divide 350 by each of the given options.
350 ÷ 2 = 175 350 ÷ 4 = 87.5 350 ÷ 6 = 58.33 350 ÷ 9 = 38.88
Step 2: Check which division results in a whole number.
From the above calculations, we can see that only 2 groups results in a whole number (175).
Therefore, Breanne should use 2 groups to place an equal number of flowers in each bouquet. So, the answer is A. 2 groups.
