Question

A box of cereal has a net weight of 42 ounces. If you buy three of these boxes, how much cereal will you have?

Answer 1

I have 126 ounces of cereal.

Explanation:

A box of cereal has a net weight of 42 ounces. If i buy three of these boxes then I have to tell the total weight of cereal i have.

Since weight of 1 box of cereal = 42 ounces

So weight of 3 boxes of cereal = 42 + 42 + 42 = 3 × 42

Total weight = 126 ounces

Therefore, I have 126 ounces of cereal.

Answer 2

42 ounces, 3 boxes

42 * 3 = 126

You will have 126 oz of cereal.
