supie · Answer

Ok so since each student completed 13 assignments, and there are 18 students and we are trying to find the total, then that means we have to  do what to the two numbers?

janiya10 · Answer

we are adding

janiya10 · Answer

so multiply

supie · Answer

Yes, we are multiplying the two numbers so,

$$18*13=?$$
or we can write it was $$18(13)=?$$
Or  18 x 13=?

So what do you think the answer is?
