Explanation:
Let’s go step by step. Each apple picture = 3 real apples. So we count the pictures and multiply by 3.
1) Week 2 has 5 apple pictures → 5 × 3 = 15 apples.
2) Week 4 has 7 apple pictures → 7 × 3 = 21 apples.
3) Week 1 has 8 pictures → 8 × 3 = 24 apples.
Week 4 = 21 apples.
24 – 21 = 3 more apples in Week 1.
4) We need to find which week had 9 more than Week 4 (which is 21).
So, 21 + 9 = 30 apples.
Which week has 30? 30 ÷ 3 = 10 pictures → That’s Week 3.
5) Add all weeks:
Week 1: 8 × 3 = 24
Week 2: 5 × 3 = 15
Week 3: 10 × 3 = 30
Week 4: 7 × 3 = 21
Total: 24 + 15 + 30 + 21 = 78 apples.
6) Week 4 = 21 apples. If each apple has 4 seeds → 21 × 4 = 84 seeds.
You got this! Just count the pictures and multiply by 3. Easy peasy.
