Beverly makes wreaths to sell for the fall season. She picked 430 pine cones from the wooded area near her house. If she uses 23 pine cones per wreath, how many wreaths can she make?

From the above question:

23 pine cones = 1 wreath

430 pine cones = x wreaths

Cross Multiply

23 pine cones × x wreaths = 430 pine cones × 1 wreath

x wreaths = 430 pine cones × 1 wreath/23 pine cones

x wreaths = 18.695652174 wreaths

Approximately = 18.7 wreaths

take the top number and divide it by a the bottom number

1/2 1 divied by 2 = .5

to find the total number of combinations, multiply the quantity of each item by each other:

2 pairs of shoes x 3 pairs of shorts = 6 different combinations.
