Kate has gone up to the chalkboard to do math problems 5 more times than Andre. Kate has gone up 11 times. Which equation represents this situation?

A- a - 11 = 5

B- 5a = 11

C- a - 5 = 11

D- a + 5 = 11

B, because it says she has gone up 5 times Andre (a).

it would actually be D. it says 5 MORE times than Andre, not 5 times (as in multiply) Andre.
