Hello!
Here is how we solve this question.
We know that 2 shoes = 1 pair
So we subtract 2 from 16 until we reach 0, and count how many times we subtracted.
16-2=14
14-2=12
12-2=10
10-2=8
8-2=6
6-2=4
4-2=2
2-2=0
After we do repeated subtraction we find that Abigail has 8 pairs of shoes!
Hope this helps you with your question.
Since shoes comes in pairs, then the number of shoes Abigael has would be obtained by subtracting 2 from 16 until we obtain 0. Hence, the number of shoes she has is 8.
The total number of shoes = 16
Shoes are in pairs ; Hence 1 pair of shoe = 2 shoes
Using repeated subtraction :
1 ; 16 - 2 = 14
2 ; 14 - 2 = 12
3; 12 - 2 = 10
4; 10 - 2 = 8
5; 8 - 2 = 6
6; 6 - 2 = 4
7; 4 - 2 = 2
8; 2 - 2 = 0
Therefore, the Number of shoes Abigael has is 8
