Question

Ella has 50 stacks of 10 pennies in each stack. Describe how to find how many pennies Ella has in all.

Answer 1

Multiply 50 times 10 and you will get 500 or just put 50 ten times and you will still get 500

Answer 2

Answer: Ela has 500 pennies in all.

Explanation:

Ela has pennies in each stack = 10

Total number of stacks Ela has = 50

The total number of pennies Ela has in all=10+10+10+10...........[50 times]

Now, to find total pennies Ela has in all, we multiply pennies in one stack to the total stacks Ela has, we get

The total number of pennies Ela has in all
`=10*50\\=500`

Therefore, Ela has 500 pennies in all.
