Ken watches a marching band. He sees 2 rows of flute players. Six people are in each row . He sees 8 trombone players. How many flute players and trombone players does Ken see?

Respuesta :

The number of flute players is determined by multiplying the number of rows and the number of people in each row. This is as shown below.
     n = (2 rows)(6 people/row) = 12 people (flute players)

The total number of flute players and trombone players can be calculated as shown below,
             T = 12 (flute players) + 8 (trombone players)
                   T = 20 people

ANSWER: 20 people
