Answer:
[tex]y = \frac{24}{x}[/tex] is the algebraic expression to represent the situation.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Some students equally share 2 baskets of apples.
Each basket has 12 apples.
To Find:
An algebraic expression to represent the situation = ?
Solution:
Let the number of students be x
The number of apple each one gets be y
then it is said that there are 12 apples in one basket.
So in two basket there will be
=> [tex]2 \times 12[/tex]
=> 24 apples
This 24 apples is to be shared among x students, so
Each student will get
[tex]y = \frac{24}{x}[/tex]
