Question

If Ben has 4 more than twice as many stamps as Jake, which of the following expressions shows the number of stamps Ben has?
4s + 2, where s is the number of stamps Jake has 4s + 2, where s is the number of stamps Ben has 2s + 4, where s is the number of stamps Jake has 2s + 4, where s is the number of stamps Ben has

Answer 1

Ben has 4 more than twice as many as Jake

Ben = 4 + 2s

Because, we know Jake has twice as many; twice being multiplication (2s) but Ben has four more, so +4.

Answer 2

so the last one? @Compassionate

Answer 3

2s + 4 or 4 + 2s. The order does not matter
