Answer 1

Hi Ghe

The questions above need you to establish relationships with the given information, then represent them mathematically to solve

For item 1

Jona has 24 stamps

Jonny has 6 times Jona’s amount so that would be 6 times 24 or 6 x 24

Can you complete that by doing the multiplication above?

For item 2

You need clarify 35 baskets with 25 apples in each basket versus the question that follows about Mangoes. The information you gave can be used to calculate the number of apples not Mangoes. I would interpret item as zero Mangoes since the information given does not say anything about Mangoes being harvested, unless there is a typo.

You might want to review the information for spelling and grammar too. We all have typos sometimes, I know I do.
