Which equations will help you solve this problem? There are 35 water balloons in a bucket. If they are split equally among 5 children, how many water balloons will each child get? Select the three correct equations below.
35 = x 5
35 = + 5
35 x 5 =
35 = 5 x
35 + = 5
To solve the problem of splitting 35 water balloons among 5 children, we need to determine how to distribute the balloons evenly. The relevant equation for this situation involves division, as we want to find out how many balloons each child gets.
The correct equations from your options are:
1. ( 35 = 5 times x ) (This can be rearranged to find ( x ), which represents the number of balloons each child gets.)
2. ( 35 = x times 5 ) (This is essentially the same as the first equation when focusing on distribution.)
3. ( 35 ÷ 5 = x ) (Although it’s not listed, this equation would also lead us to the answer.)
The equation you would primarily use to find ( x ) (the number of balloons per child) is ( 35 = 5 times x ).
Now, performing the calculation:
– To find ( x ), divide 35 by 5:
( x = 35 ÷ 5 = 7 ).
So each child would get 7 water balloons!
