THIS QUESTION IS FROM ALGEBRA GRADE 6

Answer 1

Answer:

3y + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

No.of Children = 3

No.of pencils each child got = y

No.of pencils remaining = 5

We must first form an equation (for that is what the question wants us to do):

(3 children × y pencils) + 5 = total no.of pencils

= (3 × y) + 5

= 3y + 5

Therefore, there were (3y + 5) pencils in total
