Question

Last Saturday, Ben and Dominic set up a lemonade stand to help their grandmother use

the lemons from her trees. They used 2 lemons for each cup of lemonade. By the end of the
day, the boys had sold 21 pitchers of lemonade. If each pitcher held 9 cups, how many
lemons did Ben and Dominic use?

Answer 1

378 Lemons

Explanation:

Because you use 2 lemons for every cup, you first need to find how many lemons per pitcher by multiplying 9 by 2 to get 18, so 18 lemons per pitcher, then multiply that by 21 because that's the total amount of pitchers to get 378 lemons
