Carline is making gift bags. Each gift bag contains a sketchbook 5 markers and 12 colored pencils. She has 10 sketchbooks 45 markers and 100 color pencils to use to make the gift bags. How many gift bags can she make how many sketchbook markers and colored pencils will she have left over after making the gift bags
Carlin can make blank gift bags after making a gift bag she will have blank, sketchbooks, blank markers, and blank color, pencils left over
To determine how many gift bags Carline can make, we need to find the limiting factor - the resource that will run out first.
Since each gift bag requires 1 sketchbook, 5 markers, and 12 colored pencils, let's calculate how many gift bags Carline can make using just these resources:
Number of gift bags based on sketchbooks: 10 sketchbooks = 10 gift bags
Number of gift bags based on markers: 45 markers ÷ 5 markers per gift bag = 9 gift bags
Number of gift bags based on colored pencils: 100 colored pencils ÷ 12 colored pencils per gift bag = 8 1/3 gift bags
Carline is limited by the number of colored pencils since she only has enough colored pencils to make 8 1/3 gift bags. However, she cannot make a fraction of a gift bag, so she can only make 8 gift bags.
To find out how many sketchbooks, markers, and colored pencils she will have leftover, we need to determine how many of each resource were used to make the 8 gift bags:
Number of sketchbooks used: 1 sketchbook per gift bag × 8 gift bags = 8 sketchbooks used
Number of markers used: 5 markers per gift bag × 8 gift bags = 40 markers used
Number of colored pencils used: 12 colored pencils per gift bag × 8 gift bags = 96 colored pencils used
Finally, we need to calculate how many of each resource Carline will have left over:
Number of sketchbooks left over: 10 sketchbooks - 8 sketchbooks used = 2 sketchbooks left over
Number of markers left over: 45 markers - 40 markers used = 5 markers left over
Number of colored pencils left over: 100 colored pencils - 96 colored pencils used = 4 colored pencils left over
Therefore, Carline can make 8 gift bags and will have 2 sketchbooks, 5 markers, and 4 colored pencils left over.
