In the Founder's Day Parade in Happy, USA, many organizations participate by building floats. The Float Committee has issued a decree that each float can only have 300,000 flowers on it this year. The Happy Campers have already attached 15,625 flowers to their float. If the flowers come in containers which hold 125 flowers, which equation represents how many more containers they can use on their float?

A. 125x + 15,625 = 300,000

B. 125x = 300,000 + 15,625

C. 0x = 300,000 + 125

D. 0x + 125 = 300,000

Hello! “x” equals the number of containers. Each container contains 125 flowers. Therefore, C and D are not the right answers. Adding 15,625 to 300,000 would carry you out of your limit. The one equation that works here is A, because you are solving this equation by doing 125x + 15,625 = 300,000. The answer is A.
