Question

A school has 679 bottles of water for sports day.

They buy another 8 packs of bottled water.
Each pack contains 6 bottles.
How many bottles of water do they have in total?

Answer 1

727 because first you need to find out the amount which is 4*6 then you need to add it together 679+48 check it over just in case

Answer 2

The school starts off with 679 bottles of water.

They then buy 8 packs with 6 bottles in each:
8 X 6 = 48

To calculate the total you must add the amount of bottles they originally had to the amount of purchased bottles:
679 + 48 = 727

The school therefore has 727 bottles of water in total.
