Answer 1

We were told that Mr. Newman packed 16 large - size ornaments and 29 medium - size ornaments into a box. This means that the number of large and medium ornaments in each box is 16 + 29. Given that there were 13 boxes and x represents the total number of ornaments, the equation would be

x = (16 + 29)13

x = 45 * 13

x = 585

Option F is correct
