Answer :

To determine how many packs of marbles Simon can make, we need to divide the total number of marbles by the number of marbles per pack.

1. Identify the total number of marbles: Simon has 918 marbles.

2. Identify the number of marbles per pack: There are 9 marbles in each pack.

3. Divide the total number of marbles by the number of marbles per pack:
[tex]\[ \frac{918}{9} \][/tex]

4. Perform the division:
When you divide 918 by 9, you get:
[tex]\[ 918 \div 9 = 102 \][/tex]

Therefore, Simon will be able to make 102 packs of marbles.

From the given options:
A. 12
B. 102
C. 120
D. 1062

The correct answer is:
B. 102
