64


80


27


83

Answer 1

Answer:

83

Step-by-step explanation:

Keywords: more means + and times means x

We don't know the number of boys, so it is the variable. I will use b to represent the number of boys.

3 + 4b

It says 20 boys work at the Super Shopper, so plugin 20 for b. Multiply the 4 and 20 together.

3 + 4(20)

3 + 80

83
