Answer: 2 Balls

Sarah has 2 boxes with 2 balls in each box.
2 x 2 = 4

Mel has 2 boxes with 3 balls in each box.
2 x 3 = 6

6 - 4 = 2
Mel has 2 more balls then Sarah does.

Answer:

Explanation:

Sarah:

1 Box = 2 Balls

There are 2 boxes which is 4.

Mel:

1 Box = 3 Balls

There are 2 boxes so 3 + 3 = 6

so 6-4 = 2

Therefore, Mel has 2 more balls than Sarah has.
