pictures are numbered in sequence from 1 to 152.Zack is sticking 8 pictures in order on a bristol board to form posters.
a)How many posters can Zack make?
b)On which poster can picture numbered 60 be found?
a) What is 152/8 ?
b)
60/8 = 7 4/8
line-up of pictures:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 <-- second poster
....
49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 <--- 6th row
57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 <-- 7th row
60/8 = 7 4/8
7th poster, 4th picture
To answer these questions, we need to understand the given information and make some calculations.
a) To determine how many posters Zack can make, we need to figure out how many sets of 8 pictures can be formed from the total number of pictures (152). We can divide the total number of pictures by 8 to get the answer.
Number of posters = Total number of pictures / Number of pictures per poster
Number of posters = 152 / 8 = 19
Therefore, Zack can make 19 posters.
b) To find the poster on which picture number 60 can be found, we need to determine in which set of 8 pictures it falls. Since each poster contains 8 pictures, we can find the poster number by dividing the picture number by 8 and rounding up to the nearest whole number.
Poster number = (Picture number + 7) / 8
Poster number = (60 + 7) / 8
Poster number = 67 / 8
Poster number ≈ 8.375
As poster numbers are whole numbers, we round up to the nearest whole number. Therefore, the picture numbered 60 can be found on the 9th poster.
Note: It is important to note that in this scenario, we assume that the first picture (numbered 1) falls on the first poster, the second picture (numbered 2) falls on the second poster, and so on.
