Miss Roland Distributed A Bag Of Skittles Their Students She Gave Each Student For Skittles Then class=

Sagot :

EXPLANATION

Distribution ---> 5 skittles per student

Ate ---> 8 remained

Originally ---> 143 skittles

Let's call x to the number of students.

So, if the total number of skittles is 143, the relationship should be:

143 = 5*x +8 [EQUATION]

Now, adding +8 to both sides:

143 - 8 = 5x

Adding terms:

135 = 5x

Dividing both sides by 5:

135/5 = x

Simplifying:

27 = x

Switching sides:

x=27

There are 27 students.
