(Dont need to tell me the answer just tell the steps I need to do)

Answer 1

1086

Explanation:

1. 7x12= 204(small cakes)

2. 11x22=242(medium cakes)

3.20x32=640(large cakes)

4. add all of the products up

so: 204+242+640

= 1086

This should be correct.

Answer 2

The chef sold 17 small sheet cakes. One small sheet cake can feed 12 people, so the small sheet cakes she sold can feed 17*12 people, which is 204 people. Do this for the medium and large sheet cakes as well, and add them up, and you'll get the answer.

Hope this helps!
