Question

Mr. Jay checks the pantry to see what he needs to get at the grocery store there are 4 boxes with 8 granola bars in each Box there are also 3 loose bears how many granola buys are there in all?

Answer 1

I believe the answer is 32, unless "bears" is "bars" in which then the total would be 35.

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, you have 4 boxes with 8 bars in each. And if you are trying to find a way to count all of the bars, the easiest way to do that is through multiplication!

4 x 8 = 32

you can either do it with multiplication or you can do it by adding.

8 + 8 + 8 + 8 = 32

Also, if "bears" is supposed to mean "bars", then you just add 3 to 32 which will give you 35!

Hope this helps you out.
