Ted picks 6 flowers with 4 petals on each flower. Bill picks 3 flowers with 8 petals on each flower. Jon picks 2 flowers with 12 petals on each flower. Ted says they all have the same amount of petals. Is Ted correct?

6 times 4 = 24, 3 times 8=24, and 2 times 12=24, therefore, Ted is correct.

Just multiply
6 * 4 = 24
8 * 3 = 24
2 * 12 = 24
Ted is correct! :)
