there are 36 pupils in mr. castro mathematics class mr. castro wants to seperate the class into equal group for doing an activity. what are the five diffrent ways that the teacher can do to the group he class?

He can use the factors of 36 to determine the number of groups he can divide the class into such that they are equal.

The Factors (excluding 1) are;

2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18

Using these therefore he can divide them;

x= -3

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify brackets

4 - x - 1 = 6

step 2: simpilfy

3 - x = 6

step 3: subtract 3 from both sides

-x = 6 - 3

step 4: simpilfy 6 - 3

-x = 3

step 5: multiply both sides by -1

x = -3

to find the total number of combinations, multiply the quantity of each item by each other:

2 pairs of shoes x 3 pairs of shorts = 6 different combinations.
