Cassandra Mathews · Answer 1

6p = 90

Step-by-step explanation:

p represents the number of plates made, so 6 times the number of plates is 6p. This is the number of bowls made, which is 90. So, you have ...

6p = 90

Dillan Arellano · Answer 2

90 = 6p

Step-by-step explanation:

b = number of bowls

p = number of plates

b = 6p

He made 90 bowls

Substitute this into the last equation

90 = 6p

Divide by 6

90/6 = 6p/6

15 = p

He made 15 plates
