The edges on Wayne's snowboard are chipped and dented from riding over rocks, so Wayne wants to buy a new one. He can't afford the board he wants, so he opens a hot chocolate stand near his house. Wayne figures out how many cups of hot chocolate he must sell to have enough money for the snowboard. One cold, snowy Saturday, Wayne sells 43 cups of hot chocolate. Now, he needs to sell 47 more cups to buy the snowboard.Which equation can you use to find the total number of cups c Wayne must sell to buy the snowboard?Choices:(A) 43c=47(B) 43c=47(C) c+43=47(D) c−43=47Solve this equation for c to find the total number of cups Wayne must sell to buy the snowboard.____ cups
Q. The edges on Wayne's snowboard are chipped and dented from riding over rocks, so Wayne wants to buy a new one. He can't afford the board he wants, so he opens a hot chocolate stand near his house. Wayne figures out how many cups of hot chocolate he must sell to have enough money for the snowboard. One cold, snowy Saturday, Wayne sells 43 cups of hot chocolate. Now, he needs to sell 47 more cups to buy the snowboard.Which equation can you use to find the total number of cups c Wayne must sell to buy the snowboard?Choices:(A) 43c=47(B) 43c=47(C) c+43=47(D) c−43=47Solve this equation for c to find the total number of cups Wayne must sell to buy the snowboard.____ cups
Calculate Total Cups: Wayne has already sold 43 cups and needs to sell 47 more cups to have enough money for the snowboard. To find the total number of cups c Wayne must sell, we need to add the cups he has already sold to the cups he still needs to sell.
Formulate Equation: The correct equation to represent this situation is c=43+47, where c is the total number of cups Wayne must sell.
Solve for Total Cups: Now, we solve the equation for c.c=43+47c=90
