Question

Can someone please answer A and B please?

Answer 1

2 bags

7 apples

A) Instead of a lets say:

a = 1, 2 , 3

If a =1  then, (you already know there are 2 bags) you have 1 apple in each bag, making total of 2 apples

If a =2 then you are having 2 apples in each bag making total of 4 apples

If a =3, 3 apples in each bag, making total of 6 apples

Conclusion:

2 * 1 = 2

2 * 2 = 4

2 * 3 = 6

See the difference & pattern here

Now lets do with a

2 * a = 2a

B) If a = 6

then,  2*6 = 12

lets continue from a =3

2*4=8

2*5=10

2*6=12

See the pattern again
