To write a word phrase for "p divided by 3," we need to understand the concept of division. Division is the process of splitting a number into equal parts. In this case, we are splitting the number "p" into three equal parts.
Option C. "a quotient of a number and 3" is the correct word phrase for "p divided by 3." The word "quotient" refers to the result of a division operation.
To explain how to get the answer, you can simply divide the number "p" by 3 using a calculator or by performing long division manually. The resulting value will be the answer.
For the second question, we need to write an algebraic expression to represent the number of gum pieces the baseball player might chew in "n" games, given that he chews 17 pieces per game.
Option C. "17n" is the correct algebraic expression for this scenario. It represents 17 (the number of gum pieces per game) multiplied by "n" (the number of games).
To explain how to get the answer, simply multiply the number of games, denoted by "n," by 17. For example, if there are 5 games, the player might chew 17 x 5 = 85 pieces of gum.
