Question

A bakery has 18 large trays of bagels and 20 small trays of bagels. Each large tray holds 30 bagels

Which equation could be used to find n, the total number of bagels the bakery has?

18+30x20+15=n
18x30-20x15=n
18x30+20x15=n
18+30+20+15=n

Answer 1

`18*30+20*15=n`

Explanation:

Represent the number of bagels all 18 large trays hold as
`18*30`. Represent the number of bagels all 20 small trays hold as
`20*15` (I suppose each small tray holds 15 bagels?). Add both expressions up and you get:

`18*30+20*15=n`
