Question
A farmer has b bags of potatoes. Each bag of potatoes weighs 50 pounds. Choose the equation that can be used to find t, the total weight of the potatoes in pounds.
- t = 50b
- t = b + 50
- t = b - 50
- t = 50 – b
Hint:
Total Weight of potatoes = Number of bags * weight of potatoes per bag.
The correct answer is: t = 50b
GIVEN-
Weight of potatoes per bag = b = 50 pounds.
TO FIND-
Equation for the given situation to determine the total weight of potatoes i.e. t.
SOLUTION-
We know that-
Total Weight of potatoes = Number of bags * weight of potatoes per bag
∴ t = b * 50 …....................................................................... (From given information)
∴ t = 50 b
FINAL ANSWER-
Option 'a' i.e. 't = 50b' is the correct answer to the given question.
