Studdy Solution

STEP 1

What is this asking? If 32 players make 4 teams, how many teams can we make with 96 players? Watch out! Don't mix up the number of players and the number of teams!

STEP 2

1. Players per team
2. Total teams

STEP 3

Alright, let's **start** by figuring out how many players are on each team!
We know that 32 players form 4 teams.
So, to find the number of players per team, we **divide** the total number of players by the number of teams.
It's like sharing cookies equally among friends!

STEP 4

32 players4 teams=8playersteam\frac{32 \text{ players}}{4 \text{ teams}} = 8 \frac{\text{players}}{\text{team}}

STEP 5

So there are **8 players** on each team!
Makes sense, right?

STEP 6

Now, we want to know how many teams we can make with 96 players.
We know each team needs 8 players.
So, we **divide** the total number of players (96) by the number of players per team (8).

STEP 7

96 players8playersteam=12 teams\frac{96 \text{ players}}{8 \frac{\text{players}}{\text{team}}} = 12 \text{ teams}

STEP 8

Boom! We can form **12 teams**!

STEP 9

We can form 12 teams with 96 players.
