A store sells two different packages of glue sticks as described below. Package A : 18 glue sticks. Package B : 12 glue sticks.

Answer 1

Answer:

Package A: $g=18p$ and Package B: $g=12p$

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the complete question: A store sells two different packages of glue sticks as described below. Package A : 18 glue sticks. Package B : 12 glue sticks. Write an equation for package A and B that represents the total number of glue sticks is "g" in "p" package.

Given: There are 2 packages .

Package A has 18 glue sticks

Package B has 12 glue sticks

As given let "g" be the total number of glue sticks in "p" packages.

Package A:

Total number of glue sticks in "P" packages= $Total\ number\ of\ glue\times p$

∴ $g=18\times p= 18p$

∴ $g=18p$

Package B:

Total number of glue sticks in "P" packages= $Total\ number\ of\ glue\times p$

∴ $g=12\times p= 12p$

∴ $g=12p$
