Question

Willa picked 3 white flowers and twice that number of red flowers. She also picked 2 pink flowers to make a bouquet. She told her sister she had 9 flowers in her bouquet. 

Was Willa's calculation reasonable?



 
A.
Yes, it is reasonable because 3 + 4 + 2 = 9.


 
B.
No, it is not reasonable because 3 + 6 + 2 = 11.


 
C.
No, it is not reasonable because 3 + 2 + 5 = 10

Answer 1

I believe the answer is C.

Reasoning : Willis picked 3 white flowers, 2 times of that amount of red flowers (which equals to 6) and 2 pink flowers.

3+6+2= 11 which is not reasonable.

Answer 2

It would be B) because, 3 white flowers + 6 red flowers + 2 pink flowers = 11 flowers total
Hope that helps :)
