Angela can eat an entire bag of 140 chocolate covered peanuts in 14 mouthfuls. If each handful is the same size, choose the equation that will tell us how many peanuts are in each mouthful. \(?\)

\(140 \, \div \, 14 \, = \, x\)

\(x \, \times \, 140 \, = \, 14\)

\(14 \, \div \, x \, = \, 140\)

\(140 \, \div \, 14 \, = \, x\)

\(140 \, \times \, 14 \, = \, x\)

Dylan can eat an entire bag of 120 chocolate covered peanuts in 15 mouthfuls. If each handful is the same size, choose the equation that will tell us how many peanuts are in each mouthful. \(?\)

\(120 \, \div \, 15 \, = \, x\)

\(x \, \times \, 120 \, = \, 15\)

\(120 \, \times \, 15 \, = \, x\)

\(120 \, \div \, 15 \, = \, x\)

\(15 \, \div \, x \, = \, 120\)
