Question

A family gathered 20 small sea shells from the beach brining the total number of small seashells in their collection to 41.

Answer 1

Answer:

C, x + 20 = 41

Step-by-step explanation:

X represents the number of small sea shells that we originally had. When the family adds 20 more shells, that makes x + 20. The total number is 41, so that means the number of sea shells they already had (x) plus the number of sea shells they collected (20) equals the number of shells they have now (41).
