Answer 1

i have no clue where to even start

Answer 2

Part A:
Number of schools = x
Number of classes in each school = (x + 5)
Number of students in each class = Number of classes in each school - 2
= x + 5 - 2 = (x + 3)
Number of crayons for each student = 2
Total number of crayons distributed = Number of crayons for each student *
Number of students in each class * Number of classes in each school * Number of schools
