A student claims that the expressions below are all equivalent to 8x + 60. Is the student correct? Explain.



Only 2 and 4 are equivalent. In expressions 1, when you multiply the 2 to 4x and 30, you get 8x + 60. In expressions 4, when you multiply the 1 to the 8x and 60, you get 8x + 60.

The MathCounts Club had a party at school. There were 20 cookies and 40 slices of pizza to be shared equally. Each student had the same number of whole cookies and the same number of slices of pizza with nothing left over. How many students could have been at the party? (There is more than one answer. List 3.)

1 student: 1(20 + 40)

2 students: 2(10 + 20)

4 students: 4(5 + 10)

5 students: 5(4 + 8)

10 students: 10(2 + 4)

20 students: 20(1 + 2)
