Question

Last year, there were 234 pies baked for the bake sale. This year, there were b pies baked. Using b , write an expression for the total number of pies baked in the two years.

Answer 1

234+b

This year b pies were baked

total pies = last year plus this year

total pies = 234+b

The expression does not have an equals sign so the expression is 234+b
