The Butterfly Club printed 445 copies of a booklet about butterflies for the new garden. There are 8 pages of pictures and 3 pages of type in the booklet. Each page is printed on 1/2 sheet of paper. How many sheets of paper were used for all 445 bloodless?
(8+3)/2 = 5.5 sheets per booklet
But that means that 6 whole sheets were used. The extra 1/2 sheet is just blank. Or could be used for the cover.
6*445 = ____ sheets in all.
Or maybe each sheet is folded and stapled, so that each sheet actually holds 4 pages. In that case, only 3 sheets per booklet.
