Explanation:
We need to count how many hearts and how many stars are in the picture, then fill in the table.
Let’s count row by row:
First row:
Star, Heart, Star, Star, Heart → that’s
3 stars and
2 hearts
Second row:
Heart, Star, Heart, Star, Star → that’s
3 stars and
2 hearts
Third row:
Heart, Star, Star, Star, Heart → that’s
3 stars and
2 hearts
Now add them up:
- Total stars = 3 + 3 + 3 =
9
- Total hearts = 2 + 2 + 2 =
6
Now we fill the table:
For the heart row:
- Shape: ❤️
- Tally marks: We make groups of 5 (||||) and then extra.
6 = ||||| | → so tally marks:
||||| / (but usually written as five vertical lines and one diagonal across — but in text, we often write “|||||” and then “|”, or use “||||/” for 5 and then “|” for the 6th).
Standard tally for 6 is:
|||||/ — but since it's a worksheet, they likely expect:
||||| | or just count and write total.
However, the instruction says: *“Cross out the shapes, adding tally marks to the table.”* So we’re supposed to simulate counting by making tally marks as we go.
But for the final answer, we only need the
Total numbers.
So:
- Hearts: 6
- Stars: 9
Let me double-check by counting all shapes directly:
List all shapes left to right, top to bottom:
Row 1: ★, ❤, ★, ★, ❤ → 3★, 2❤
Row 2: ❤, ★, ❤, ★, ★ → 3★, 2❤
Row 3: ❤, ★, ★, ★, ❤ → 3★, 2❤
Yes — 9 stars, 6 hearts.
Final Answer:
Hearts: 6
Stars: 9
