Part A: what is the total number of crayons Mrs. Phelps bought at the store?


Part B: Mrs. Phelps wants to give each of her students an equal number of the crayons she bought. There are 32 students Mrs. Phelps class. How many crayons should each student get?

Verified Answer :

Part A: You want to find the total # of crayons. There is 64 in each box and there is 4 boxes so you multiply 64*4 = 256. So there is 256 crayons in total.
Part B: Mrs. Philips wants to divide her crayons evenly between her students. The word equal is a key word for division. So divide 256 and 32 which is 8. So, each student gets 8 crayons.
