The teacher distributes 5 pencils per student. Can you tell how many pencils are needed, given the number of students? (Use s for the number of students)


Let us assume the number of students be s


Also,


It is given in the question that:


Number of pencil given to each student = 5


Therefore,


Total number of pencils = Number of pencil given to each student × Number of students


= 5 × s


= 5s
