How much money will Luke spend for breakfast on 6 Mondays? A. Make a table. Week 1 2 3 4 5 6 Total ($) 5 10 15 20 25 B. Translate into an equation. (3 × 2) + 6 = d C. Use objects to represent the problem. Set out 6 small cups. Use coins to represent dollars. Add $2 + $3 to get the amount spent each Monday ($5). Put that number of coins into each cup.
