Question

Sherry picked 245 strawberries and put 7 in storage. Then she mixed them with 10 raspberries and mixed the berries for 5 days. What is the final count of berries?

Answer 1

Sherry ended up with a total of 248 berries after storing some strawberries and mixing the remaining with raspberries.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks for the final count of berries after Sherry picks strawberries, stores some, and mixes them with raspberries. First, Sherry picked 245 strawberries and put 7 in storage. This means she now has 245 - 7 = 238 strawberries. Then she added 10 raspberries to the mix. To find the final count of berries, we need to add the strawberries not put in storage to the raspberries, which gives us 238 strawberries + 10 raspberries = 248 berries in total.
