Question

Mac earns $5$ points for scoring a goal in a video game. If Mac earns $30$ points in total, how many goals did he score?

• A. $30+5$
• B. $30\times 5$
• C. $30÷5$
• D. $30-5$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $30÷5$

Points earned for scoring one goal $=5$
Total number of points earned $=30$
We need to find the total number of goals scored by Mac.

We can calculate it by dividing the total number of points earned by the number points earned for each goal. Therefore,
$30÷5$ is the correct answer.
Hence, option B is correct.
