Question

There are 14 people (p), on Ruby’s pirate ship including her. Everyone will be staying on the ship for 65 days. If everyone eats 3 meals a day, how many meals will Ruby have to make?

Please tell me what equation I have to make to solve this!

Answer 1

Explanation:

First calculate how much the total person eats a day: 14 * 3 = 42

Second calculate how much the total person eats for 65 days: 42 * 65 = 2730

Ruby has to make 2730 meals all together
