Explanation:
Let’s go step by step so it’s super clear.
1. “What was the total of the two favorite cotton-candy flavors?”
→ First, find the two flavors with the most votes.
Root Beer = 40, Strawberry = 40 → those are the top two.
Add them: 40 + 40 = 80.
2. “How many more students voted for Fruity-Tooty than Licorice?”
→ Fruity-Tooty = 35, Licorice = 25.
Subtract: 35 – 25 = 10. So 10 more students liked Fruity-Tooty.
3. “How many students voted in all?”
→ Add up all the votes:
35 (Fruity-Tooty) + 40 (Strawberry) + 25 (Licorice) + 10 (Bubblegum) + 40 (Root Beer)
= 35 + 40 = 75 → 75 + 25 = 100 → 100 + 10 = 110 → 110 + 40 = 150.
4. “How many times more did students vote for Root Beer than Bubblegum?”
→ Root Beer = 40, Bubblegum = 10.
Ask: “How many 10s are in 40?” → 40 ÷ 10 = 4.
So, 4 times more.
You got this! Just take one question at a time.
