Question

For a company picnic, Todd fills 30 paper cups with ketchup and Yuki fills 27 paper cups with ketchup. Each paper cup holds 1 ounce. Later, Todd and Yuki learn that two other company employees completed exactly the same task. Question 1 Part A Write a numerical expression to find how many ounces of ketchup the four employees prepared.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Todd fills 30 paper cups with ketchup and Yuki fills 27 paper cups with ketchup.

Each paper cup holds 1 ounce

Todd = 30 * 1 = 30 ounces

Yuki = 27 * 1 = 27 ounces

Total ounces = 30 + 27

Later, Todd and Yuki learn that two other company employees completed exactly the same task.

Total ounces = 2 (30 + 27)
