Answer:
N\text{ = st \lparen option D\rparen}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Each student receives the same number of toothpicks (t) for a project

To find:

te equation that can be used to find the total number of toothpicks, N, given out by the teacher

let each toothpick student received = t

let the total number of students = s

total number of toothpicks = N

Total number of toothpicks = each toothpick student received × total number of students


\begin{gathered} N\text{ = t }*\text{ s} \\ N\text{ = ts} \\ \\ N\text{ = st \lparen option D\rparen} \end{gathered}
