Mr. Jones has three tables in his classroom. Each table has four
students. Each student has two pencils. How many pencils do the
students have in all?

24

Step-by-step explanation:

you would multiply 3 tables by 4 students, that would be twelve. then 12 times 2, which is 24. Or you could find the pencils by multiplying 2 with 8 and then multiplying by 3. :)

Step-by-step explanation:

4 students per table: 4 * 3 = 12 students

2 pencils per student: 2 * 12 = 24 pencils

probably .5

i can on others if necessary.

step-by-step explanation: given equation a = h(b 1+b 2)

also we are given values of a, h and b 1 as :

a = 16, h = 4, and b 1 = 3.

in order to solve it for b 2, we need to plug the given values of   a, h and b 1 .

therefore, plugging values of   a, h and b 1   in given equation, we get

16 = 4( 3 + b 2)

first dividing both sides by 4, we get

4 = 3 + b 2

subtracting 3 from both sides, we get

4 -3 = 3 -3 + b 2

1 = b 2.
