Question

In 2014 a toy store sold 11 839 stuffed animals In 2015 the toy store sold 24250 more stuffed animals than 2014. The toy store sold the same number of stuffed animals in 2016 as it did in 2015 how many stuffed animals did they sell in 2014 2015 and 2016 combined

Answer 1

The value is
`A =84017 \ stuffed \ animals`

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The number of stuffed animals sold in 2014 is n = 11 839

The number of stuffed animals sold in 2015 is k = 24250 + n

The number of stuffed animals sold in 2016 is g = k

So the total number of stuffed animals the toy store sold in 2014, 2015 and 2016 combined is

`A = n + k + g`

=>
`A = n + 24250 + n + k`

=>
`A = n + 24250 + n + 24250 + n`

=>
`A = 3n + 48500`

=>
`A = 3(11 839) + 48500`

=>
`A =84017 \ stuffed \ animals`
