Question

I have a stack of $5 bills and a stack of $20 bills. I have the same amount of bills in each stack. The expression, 5n + 20n , shows the total amount of money I have where n is the number of bills in each stack. Write an expression to show how much money I have.

Answer 1

25n

Explanation:

It gives us the answer, we just have to simplify it. The problem says that "5n + 20n shows the total amount of money" and we are looking for an expression that shows the total amount of money.

5n + 20n = 25n
