for A toddler has 36 blocks, of which 16 are blue and 20 are pink. They want to sort the blocks so that each group has both colors of blocks. The toddler also wants each group to have an equal number of blue blocks and an equal number of pink blocks. Which answer best shows how the toddler should sort the blocks using the GCF and the Distributive Property of multiplication over addition?(1 point) Responses 4(4 x 5) 4(4 x 5) 2(8 + 10) 2(8 + 10) 1(16 + 20) 1(16 + 20) 4(4 + 5) 4(4 + 5)

To sort the blocks so that each group has both colors of blocks and an equal number of blue and pink blocks, the toddler should use the GCF and the Distributive Property of multiplication over addition.

The best answer that shows this is: 2(8 + 10)
This means that the toddler should make 2 groups, where each group has 8 blue blocks and 10 pink blocks.

There are 40 students in Joan’s class. She plans to invite them to her birthday party. She asked them to suggest a theme for her party. Three of every eight students suggested a rainbow-themed party. How many students suggested a rainbow-themed party? How many did not?(2 points) Suggested Rainbow Did not suggest Rainbow

To calculate how many students suggested a rainbow-themed party and how many did not, we need to determine the number of students in each group.

Out of every 8 students, 3 suggested a rainbow-themed party. Therefore, we can find the number of students in each group by dividing 40 (total number of students) by 8 and then multiplying that result by 3.

Number of students suggesting a rainbow-themed party: (40 / 8) * 3 = 15

Number of students who did not suggest a rainbow-themed party: 40 - 15 = 25

Therefore, 15 students suggested a rainbow-themed party, while 25 did not.

Mary ate 4 12 pears and Carmie ate 7 24 pears. If they finished all the pears in a box, how many pears were in the box?(1 point) Responses 11 pears 11 pears 1112 pears 1112 pears 11 14 pears 11 14 pears 12 pears

To find the total number of pears in the box, we need to calculate the sum of the pears eaten by Mary and Carmie.

Mary ate 4 12 pears, which is equal to 4 x 12 = <<4*12=48>>48 pears.
Carmie ate 7 24 pears, which is equal to 7 x 24 = <<7*24=168>>168 pears.

To find the total, we add the number of pears eaten by Mary and Carmie: 48 + 168 = <<48+168=216>>216 pears.

Therefore, there were 216 pears in the box.

Mary ate 4 1/2 pears and Carmie ate 7 2/4 pears. If they finished all the pears in a box, how many pears were in the box?(1 point) Responses 11 pears 11 pears 11 12 pears 11 1/2 pears 11 1/4 pears 11 1/4 pears 12 pears

To find the total number of pears in the box, we need to calculate the sum of the pears eaten by Mary and Carmie.

Mary ate 4 1/2 pears, which is equal to 4 + 1/2 = 8/2 + 1/2 = 9/2 pears.
Carmie ate 7 2/4 pears, which is equal to 7 + 2/4 = 28/4 + 2/4 = 30/4 pears.

To find the total, we add the number of pears eaten by Mary and Carmie: 9/2 + 30/4 = (18/4) + (30/4) = 48/4 = 12 pears.

Therefore, there were 12 pears in the box.

Kim made three quiches for a party: cheese, spinach, and mushroom. The cheese quiche was cut into 8 equal pieces, the spinach quiche was cut into 16 equal pieces, and the mushroom quiche was cut into 4 equal pieces. At the party, people ate 5 pieces of the cheese, 9 pieces of the spinach, and 2 pieces of the mushroom. Which quiche did people eat the most of? Identify the fractions in numerical order from greatest to least(1 point) Responses 1016 , 816 , 916 ; The cheese quiche was eaten the most 1016 , 816 , 916 ; The cheese quiche was eaten the most 916 , 58 , 24 ; The spinach quiche was eaten the most 916 , 58 , 24 ; The spinach quiche was eaten the most 16 , 8 , 4 ; the cheese quiche was eaten the most 16 , 8 , 4 ; the cheese quiche was eaten the most 58 , 916 , 24 ; the cheese quiche was eaten the most

To determine which quiche people ate the most of, we need to compare the number of pieces eaten from each quiche.

Fraction of the cheese quiche eaten: 5/8
Fraction of the spinach quiche eaten: 9/16
Fraction of the mushroom quiche eaten: 2/4 (which simplifies to 1/2)

To order these fractions from greatest to least, we have:
9/16, 5/8, 1/2

Therefore, people ate the most pieces from the spinach quiche, followed by the cheese quiche, and then the mushroom quiche.
