Question

Jesse and her family are painting their house. When they first started, they bought twenty 4-cup cans of paint. In order to paint their house, it took all of those cans plus they needed another 4-cup can of paint. How many cups of paint did it take Jesse and her family to paint their house?

Answer 1

Answer:

84

Step-by-step explanation:

20*4=80+4

Answer 2

Answer:

84 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 20 packs, with each having 4 cups of paint. To find that total, we multiply 20 by 4: 20 * 4 = 80 cups.

We see that they need another 1 pack, which also has 4 cups of paint. So, we multiply 1 by 4: 1 * 4 = 4 cups.

Then we add the two totals together: 80 + 4 = 84 cups.

The answer is 84 cups.

Hope this helps!
