Question

Last year, there were 148 pies baked for the bake sale. This year, there were c pies baked. Using c, write an expression for the total number of pies baked in the 2 years

Answer 1

since we know that there were 148 pies sold the first year, and c number of pies sold this year. You would add these two to find the total amount of both years.

148+c

Answer 2

`\huge{\boxed{c+148}}`

We need to find the number of pies baked in years 1 and 2.

There were 148 pies baked in year 1.
`148`

There were
`c` pies baked in year 2.
`148+c`

Rearrange the terms so the variable is first.
`c+148`
