Given the statement:
Allison has 3 containers with 25 crayons in each. She also has 4 boxes of markers with 12 markers in each box. She gives 10 crayons to a friend.
Determine how many crayons and markers does Allison have left.
Solution:
In order to determine how many crayons and markers Allision have left, we must first find the total number of crayons and markers.
Crayons
= (3)(25)
= 75 crayons
Markers
=(4)(12)
= 48 markers
Since she gave 10 crayons to her friend, that means we subtract 10 to 75.
= 75 crayons - 10 crayons
= 65 crayons.
Final answer:
Allison have a total of 48 markers and 65 crayons left.
