Question

There are 24 students in a science class. Mr. Sato will give
each pair of students 3 magnets. So far, Mr. Sato has given 9 pairs of students their 3 magnets. How many more magnets does Mr. Sato need so that each pair of students has exactly 3 magnets?

Answer 1

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

well, if there's 24 students, then there is 12 pairs, right? So 12x3=36. 9 pairs already have magnets, so 9x3, which is 27. 36-27=9 more magnets.

Answer 2

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

well, if there's 24 students, that mean there are twelve pairs so 12 times 3 is 36 so he has given out nine pairs of student magnets so 9 times 3 is 27

now minus the 36 from 27=9
