To solve this problem, start by finding how many cans will be collected in 5 months. To do this, take the amount of cans collected each month and multiply it by the number of months. Set these values up in an equation. This leaves you with: 3.75(5) = x
Multiply the values to get 18.75 pounds of cans. So this fills the first blank.
For the second blank, you must subtract the number collected from the number that was the goal for the class. This results in the expression: 20.5 - 18.75
Subtract the values to fill the second blank with 1.75 pounds.
Since they didn’t meet their goal, the last blank would be “less.”
There are three chocolates and six different options to mix with those chocolates. Each chocolate has six different options. So, it comes to 6 + 6 + 6 or 6 • 3 whoch equals 18 different combinations.
