Question

Brainly annie has 2 bags of apples and 5 single apples eva has 1 bag of apples and 11 single apples they have the same amount of apples how many apples so they have in total

Answer 1

Answer:

34 apples

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer: try setting up each of the equations for Annie and Eva.

Annie: 2(bag) + 5

Eva: 1(bag) + 11

Those two equations equal each other. So set that up:

2(bag) + 5 = 1(bag) + 11

Now solve for the size of the bag.

2(bag) - 1(bag) = 11 - 5

1(bag) = 6 apples

Now substitute 6 back into either equation to determine number of apples.

Annie: 2(6) + 5 = 12+5=17

They each have 17, so there are 34 apples in total.
