Answer:
The total number of pencils that Mr. Moretti gives to his is 162.
Step-by-step explanation:
He puts 3 mechanincal pencils in each bag.
In each bag, there is also twice as many regular pencils, that is, 3*2 = 6 regular pencils.
So in each bag, 3 + 6 = 9 pencils.
What is the total number of pencils that Mr. Moretti gives to his students if he puts 3 mechanical pencils in each bag?
18 students, and each gets 9 pencils.
18*9 = 162
The total number of pencils that Mr. Moretti gives to his is 162.
