Question

14. Choose Efficient Methods Gabriela

orders plastic spoons for the ice-cream
social. There are 48 spoons in each box,
and 12 boxes are ordered. Gabriela wants
to find how many spoons are in the order.
She says, "I will use an algorithm." What
feedback can you give Gabriela about the
method she plans to use?

Answer 1

Answer: 576

Explanation:

she doesnt have to use algorithm. she can just use her simple knowledge and multiply 48 and 12.

48·12= 576

Answer 2

making an algorithm chart would take a longer time than just dividing. instead of making an algorithm, she should just divide 48 & 12 together to get the answer (4).
