Question
Kelvin’s first beneficiary was a nursing home for older ladies. He bought 3 boxes of flowers, with each box having 9 flowers. Find the total flowers did he bought for the nursing home.
- 11
- 24
- 27
- 14
Hint:
We are given that Kevin bought 3 boxes of flowers for nursing home. Each box has 9 flowers. We are asked to find the total number of flowers he bought for the nursing home. We will find the number by multiplying the number of boxes and number of flowers.
The correct answer is: 27
The number of boxes bought by Kevin are 3.
The number of flowers per each box is 9.
We have to find total number of boxes. To find the total number of flowers, we will multiply the number of flowers per box by the number of boxes.
Total number of flowers = Number of flowers per box × Number of boxes
Total number of flowers = 9 × 3
= 18
Therefore, total number of flowers bought by Kevin, for the nursing home are 18.
We have to use multiplication for such questions. We can also solve the question by adding the number of flowers 3 times. But, multiplication makes it simpler.
