One fourth of the children who are on the bus are wearing a red shirt. If 14 of the children are wearing a red shirt, write an equation that can be used to find the total number of children on the bus.

14x4=total students

Step-by-step explanation:

Because if 14 children is one fourth then you must multiply 14 times 4 to get the total.

186 notebooks; 222 pencils

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Notebooks

The number of notebooks must be between 185 and 190.  

To have no notebooks left over, the number of 6-packs must be an integral multiple of six.

The only integral multiple of six between 185 and 190 is 186.

186÷ 6 = 31

So, there are 31 packs containing a total of 186 notebooks.

2. Pencils

The number of pencils must be between 220 and 225.  

To have no pencils left over, the number of 6-packs must be an integral multiple of six.

The only integral multiple of six between 220 and 225 is 222.

222÷ 6 = 37

So, there are 37 packs containing a total of 222 pencils.

There were originally 186 notebooks and 222 pencils.
