Let’s solve each problem one by one, step by step.

Problem 1:
Seth grows 9 carrots and 7 tomatoes.
Total vegetables = 9 + 7 =
16 vegetables
Each sells for $2 → Total money = 16 × 2 =
$32
✔ Final Answer:
D $32

Problem 2:
Lacy has 5 watermelons.
Each has 9 seeds → Total seeds = 5 × 9 =
45 seeds
Each seed grows 2 watermelons → Total new watermelons = 45 × 2 =
90
✔ Final Answer:
A 90 watermelons

Problem 3:
Blaine bought 5 shirts at $4 each → 5 × 4 =
$20
He also bought 3 hats at $3 each → 3 × 3 =
$9
Total spent = 20 + 9 =
$29
✔ Final Answer:
A $29

Problem 4:
Alan paints 4 pictures.
Normally each sells for $10 → 4 × 10 = $40
But one was on sale for $8 → So we subtract $10 and add $8 → 40 - 10 + 8 =
$38
OR: 3 pictures at $10 = $30, plus 1 at $8 = $8 → 30 + 8 =
$38
✔ Final Answer:
C $38

Problem 5:
Rebecca ate 3 strawberries × 10 calories =
30 calories
She ate 2 pancakes × 50 calories =
100 calories
Total = 30 + 100 =
130 calories
✔ Final Answer:
D 130 calories

Problem 6:
Maddy bakes 12 loaves. Each sells for $3.
But one loaf was free → So she only sold 11 loaves.
Money made = 11 × 3 =
$33
Wait — let me double-check:
Original total if all sold: 12 × 3 = $36
Minus one free loaf ($3) → 36 - 3 =
$33
✔ Final Answer:
$33
*(Note: The options aren’t shown in the image for Q6, but based on calculation, it’s $33.)*
