Mrs smith has 5 times as many markers as colored pencils. The total number of markers and colored pencils is 54. How many markers does mrs smith have?

Respuesta :

if there is 5 times as many markers as colored pencils you would divide 54 by 6 because 54 has 6 parts (one part colored pencils and 5 parts markers) so when you divide you get 9 and 9 × 5 is 45 so 45 is your answer.
