Marion has 4 cards, Jake has 4 cards, and Sam has 3 cards. Can you write a multiplication equation to find how many cards they have in all? Explain why or why not.

4(2)+3=11
You can use multiplication but not throughout the whole equation.
Hope that helped!

No because you have to use addition to find "in all"
