Answer:

128

Explanation:

You want the total number of bedrooms in a mix of 1-, 2-, and 3-bedroom apartments.

Bedrooms

The total number will be the sum of the products ...

1 × number of 1-bedroom apartments = 1 × 32 = 32

2 × number of 2-bedroom apartments = 2 × 24 = 48

3 × number of 3-bedroom apartments = 3 × 16 = 48

That total is ...

32 +48 +48 = 128

There are 128 bedrooms in the apartment building.
