Step 1: Highlight the important words (The words I highlighted are below)
3 times as many cards as Mark Mark has 12 cards Equation show how many cards Samantha has
Step 2: Determine To determine how to find the equation we will figure out what eat highlighted word or phrase is.
three times as many cards as Mark - means you multiply however many cards Mike has by three. Mike has 12 cards so we multiply 12 by 3
Step 4: Evaluate Now that we know how to use the underlined words we use what we just determined. The answer is 12 times 3 equals how many cards Samantha has.
12 x 3 = s Therefore the equation would be 12 x 3 = s, Hope this helps! - Alyssa
