Question

Jack had 3 bags of golf balls with b balls in each bag; then his friend gave him 6 more golf balls. How many golf balls does Jack have now? Write your answer as an expression.

Answer 1

Answer: Hello there!

Jack had 3 bags whit b golf balls in each bag, so he originally had an amount of three times b golf balls or 3*b in total.

Now his friend gave him 6 more golf balls, so you need to add 6 to the previous value:  

Now Jack has 3b + 6 golf balls in total.

So this equation gives the actual number of balls that Jack has in function of the number b.

Answer 2

3b+6
