Question

A tray of rice crackers has 4 rows. Each of these rows has 10 crackers. The letter c stands for the total number of crackers. Which equation can you use to find c? A) 4x10=c B) 4+10=c

Answer 1

A) 4 x 10 = c

Step-by-step explanation:

We were given that:

The tray has 4 rows

Each row has 10 crackers

The total number of crackers is given by the product of the number of rows & the number of crackers in each row:

`\begin{gathered} c=number.of.rows* number.of.crackers.in.each.row \\ c=4*10\Rightarrow4*10=c \\ 4*10=c \\ \\ \therefore4*10=c \end{gathered}`

Hence, the correct option is A
