Question

A fruit stand has 5 bags of apples with 8 apples in each bag if there are 3 more aples on the shelf next to the bags how many total apples are at the fruit stand

Answer 1

43

Explanation:

So if there are 5 bags which each have 8 apples in them and we need to find out how many apples there are all we have to do is multiply 8 x 5 = 40

But there are 3 more apples off to the side so we just take 40 and add 3 to it.

40 + 3 = 43
