Barbara has 9 stuffed animals. Trisha has 3 times as many stuffed animals as Barbara. How many stuffed animals does Trisha have?
Please help.


Sagot :

Barbara has 9 and trisha has 3 times as many so that is 9x3=27
the amount of stuffed animals Barbara has - 9 animals 
Trisha is said to have 3 times as many animals as Barbara has
that means Trisha has thrice the amount Barbara has
So if Barbara has 9 , three times the amount of 9 can be found by multiplying 9 by 3 
then Trisha should have 9x3 animals
9 x 3 = 27
therefore Trisha has 27 stuffed animals
