is she included in the everyone?
yes
you are supposed to multiply 4 (including her) time 7.25. And then you can multiply 1.75 times 4 (including her) and add up the products of both the answers. so it would be 7.25*4=29 and 1.75*4=7. You add the 29+7 and get 36.
good luck!
wait but the thing im confused on is what would be the number sentance ?
it would be 7.25*4=29 and the second would be 1.75*4=7, and the last would be 29+7=36. I suggest you use all three because it shows how you got your answer.
do you understand?
kinda but how would i put those 3 together?
ok so what you do is 7.25*4+1.75*4=36..do you get why though?
yes i do
ok good luck!
thanks
