Question

Darlene is adopting a pet. She can choose from 8 kittens and 6 puppies. How many ways can she choose a pet to adopt?

Answer 1

Answer: 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The number of pets Darlene is adopting = 1

The number of kittens =8

The number of puppies = 6

Therefore, the total number of pets is given by :-

$\text{Total Pets}=\text{Number of kittens +Number of Puppies}\\\\\Rightarrow\text{Total Pets}=8+6=14$

Now, if Darlene is adopting only one pet then the number of choices Darlene has = 14

Hence, the number of ways can she choose a pet to adopt = 14.
