How many total computers would someone buy if they get 17 notebooks and 19 desktop computers? How many total computers would someone buy if they get n notebooks and d desktop computers?​

Answer 1

To find the total number of computers, simply add the number of notebooks and desktop computers together. In general, the total number of computers is found by adding the number of notebooks and desktop computers.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total number of computers that someone would buy, you need to add the number of notebooks and desktop computers together.

If someone gets 17 notebooks and 19 desktop computers, they would buy a total of 17 + 19 = 36 computers.

If someone gets n notebooks and d desktop computers, they would buy a total of n + d computers.
