Answer:

3 moles of products

Step-by-step explanation:

The numeral in front of each product is the coefficient. It indicates the number of moles of that product you have. This reaction shows 1 mole of methane reacting with 2 moles of O₂ to produce 1 mole of carbon dioxide plus 2 moles of water. 3 total moles of products.
