Question

violet chewed 5 times as many pieces of bubble gum in one week as her friend if her friend chewed 12 pieces of bubble gum.how many did violet chew

Answer 1

I'm not sure if I'm going to be right because it doesn't say if it's 5 times more or less

so I would say it's 5 (12)=60 so I think Violet chewed chewed 60

and if it was asking how many pieces of bubble gum Violet chewed more than her friend it would be 60-12=48
