Question

Mr. Lozano's office has nine rows of filing cabinets with nine cabinets in each row. Mrs. Jackson's office has six rows of cabinets with 12 cabinets in each row. How many more cabinets does Mr. Lozano have than Mrs. Jackson?

Answer 1

Mr. Lozano has 9 cabinets more.

Explanation:

Mr. Lozano's office has nine rows of filing cabinets with nine cabinets in each row.

So, the total cabinet in Mr. Lozano's office is:
`9 * 9=81`

Thus, the total number of cabinets in Mr. Lozano's office is 81.

Mrs. Jackson's office has six rows of cabinets with 12 cabinets in each row.

So, the total cabinet in Mrs. Jackson'soffice is:
`6 * 12=72`

Thus, the total number of cabinets in Mrs. Jackson's office is 72.

Now subtract 72 from 81 as Mr. Lozano's office has more cabinets.

`81-72=9`

Hence, Mr. Lozano has 9 cabinets more.
