In the school band, there are 4 trumpet players and F flute players.The total number of trumpet and flute players is 12. Are there are twice as many flute players as trumpets players? Explain

Yes. Because 4 twice is 8. And since there are only four flute players, there will be 8 leftover players, making those 8 leftover players the flute players. Since twice of 4 is 8, and there are 8 flute players, there are twice as many flute players than trumpet players.

There is 8 flute players and yes there is twice. Because in total there are 12 instrument players so you could subtract 4 from 12 it will equal 8 and its twice of trumpet players.
