sarah works in the clubhouse golf course. She receives a case containing 125 golf balls. the number of boxes in the case is equal to the number of packs in each box. and the number of packs in each box is equal to the number of golf balls in each pack. how many golf balls are in a pack?
What is the cube root of 125?
To find out how many golf balls are in a pack, let's work through the information step by step.
1. Sarah receives a case containing 125 golf balls.
2. The number of boxes in the case is equal to the number of packs in each box.
3. The number of packs in each box is equal to the number of golf balls in each pack.
Let's assign some variables to represent the quantities mentioned:
- Let "B" represent the number of boxes in the case.
- Let "P" represent the number of packs in each box.
- Let "G" represent the number of golf balls in each pack.
Based on the information given, we know that the following relationships hold true:
1. B = P (The number of boxes is equal to the number of packs in each box)
2. P = G (The number of packs in each box is equal to the number of golf balls in each pack)
Now, let's use this information to solve the problem:
1. Since the number of boxes is equal to the number of packs in each box, B = P.
2. If B = P and P = G, then B = G.
Therefore, the number of golf balls in a pack is 125.
