Add the total number of squares and circles. B. Use logical reasoning. Think that finding 2 groups of 5 is the same as 2 × 5 = 10 and that 3 groups of 4 is the same as 3 × 4 = 12. Then add 10 + 12. C. Model the problem. Show 2 groups of 5 chips and 3 groups of 4 chips. Then count all the chips. D. Translate into an equation. 2 × 3 × 4 × 5 = n
