Understand the problem: Understand the problem.Eva divides a bag of marbles evenly among 6 players, and each player gets 13 marbles. We need to find the total number of marbles in the bag.
Choose the correct equation: Choose the correct equation.To find the total number of marbles, we need to multiply the number of marbles each player gets by the number of players. The correct equation that represents this situation is (A)6m=13, because m divided by 6 players equals 13 marbles per player.
Solve the equation for m: Solve the equation for m.Using the equation (A)m/6=13, we multiply both sides by 6 to isolate m.m=13×6
Calculate the total number of marbles: Calculate the total number of marbles.m=13×6m=78
