Question

Mark baked (2p 2 + 7 p − 39) cookies and divided them equally into (2 p − 7) packs. How many cookies did Mark put in each packet?

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{(p-3)(2p-13)}{2p-7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Cookies = $2p^{2} + 7p -39$

Number of Packets =  $(2p-7)$

Number of Cookies in Each Packet = $\frac{Total Cookies}{No. of Packets}$

⇒ $\frac{2p^{2} + 7p - 39 }{2p-7}$

⇒ $\frac{(p-3)(2p-13)}{2p-7}$
