7 freinds to a party if each freind will get 5 cookies and each box has 12 cookies how many boxes does shenika need to get

3 boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer for the problem consider the amount of friends and how many cookies they will receive

First multiply 5 and 7 to find the amount of cookies she needs

5 x 7 = 35

She needs 35 cookies but there are 12 cookies per box

36 / 12 is 3

We are using 36 because it is the closest number to 35 that 12 can go into

She needs to get 3 boxes in order for each friend to get 5 cookies

Hope I helped :]

Step-by-step explanation:

equation 1.      6a + 2b = 14   ( times this equation by -2)

equation  2.      2a + 4b = 18

equation 1 becomes    -12a - 4b = -28

equation 2. remains.    2a  + 4b  = 18

Cancel out the b’s

-10 a =  -10   (Divide both sides by -10)

a = 1

substitute 1 for a  to find b

i think your numbers in the problem you gave is not accurate though

please check it again

b = 4
