Let’s solve this step by step.
The task says:
“Trace the numbers and paste nineteen mini cupcakes on the tray.”
We see the big number
19 and the word
nineteen. That means we need to work with the number 19.
Below the tray, there are dotted lines with the number “19” written three times — that’s for tracing. You would trace over those dotted 1s and 9s to practice writing the number.
Then, at the bottom, there’s a strip of cupcakes cut out (you can tell because of the scissors icon). Let’s count how many cupcakes are in that strip:
- First row: 7 cupcakes
- Second row: 7 cupcakes
- Third row: 7 cupcakes
Wait — let’s count again carefully:
Actually, looking closely:
Row 1: 7 cupcakes
Row 2: 7 cupcakes
Row 3: 7 cupcakes
7 + 7 = 14, plus 7 more is 21. But wait — that’s too many! We only need 19.
But hold on — maybe not all rows have 7? Let me recount each cupcake one by one from left to right, top to bottom:
Top row: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 → 7
Middle row: 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 → 7 more (total 14)
Bottom row: 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21 → 7 more (total 21)
Hmm… but the instruction says to paste
nineteen cupcakes. So even though there are 21 cupcakes shown, you should only pick
19 of them to paste onto the tray.
That makes sense — sometimes worksheets give you extra so you have to choose the right amount.
So here’s what you do:
✔ Step 1: Trace the number “19” on the dotted lines below the tray. Do it slowly and carefully.
✔ Step 2: Cut out the cupcakes along the dashed line (where the scissors are).
✔ Step 3: Count out exactly
19 cupcakes from the cut-out strip.
✔ Step 4: Paste those 19 cupcakes onto the pink tray.
You don’t need to use all 21 — just 19. You can leave 2 unused.
Final Answer:
Trace the number 19 three times on the dotted lines, then cut out the cupcakes and paste exactly 19 of them onto the tray.
