The nature park has a pride of 7 adult lions and 4 cubs.

The adults eat 6 pounds of meat each day and the cubs
eat 3 pounds. Evaluate 7 × 6 + 4 × 3 to find the
amount of meat consumed each day by the lions.

The amount of meat consumed each day is 54.

USE PEMDAS

7 x 6 + 4 x 3

^^ put one of the selections in parenthesis

= 7 x 6 + (4 x 3)

Multiply first on both since they both are multiplication.

7 x 6 + (4 x 3)

| |

= 42 = 12

Now add both. 42 + 12 = 54

Hope I helped
