What is the question? If you need an expression for total number of pencils Diane has, that would be 15n, but without a direct question this is not clear.

Hi! I think there might be more to this question. Is this for math class. If so, they might be looking for you to write a math expression.


n represents the number of packs of pencils


If they want an expression for the total number of pencils it would be 15n because you would need to multiply the number of pencils in each pack (15) by the number of packs (n).


I hope that helps! Feel free to reach out if you need more assistance!
