Smith’s Bakery sold 6 more than four times the number of pies that Mcgee’s Bakery sold. If Mcgee’s Bakery sold 16 pies, how many pies did Smith’s Bakery sell? Give me reasons, before answering the question
Four times the number of pies that Mcgee’s sold is 16 * 4 = 64 pies. Smith’s Bakery sold 64 + 6 = 70 pies. So the final answer is 70.
