Meeting at ten in the morning meant the villagers would have enough time to be done with the lottery and be home by noon for lunch. While other bigger towns had to begin the lottery one day earlier, this village only had 300 inhabitants, which made it all faster for them.

"The Lottery" is a short story by author Shirley Jackson in which the power of ritual and tradition is discussed as theme. The inhabitants of a village take part in a lottery every single year, on the 27th of June. The person who name is ultimately drawn in the lottery has to be killed by the others.

Answer:

you spend $19 in total

Explanation:

to get the answer you just add $12 + $7 = $19.

I couldn't make a number line but I will just explain how to do it.

draw a number line
write 0 - 20 on it (or honestly whatever numbers you want, depending on how big you want your number line and if you want to include negative numbers on it)
find number 12 and circle it
then count up 7 (so 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 , 19.)
then you can circle 19.
this is optional but you can draw a rounded arrow from 12 to 19 and write +7 on it to explain that you added 7

I hope you get this right, wish you luck! I worked hard on my explanation lol
