Hearty bought 3 packages of blue and 5 packages of red. If there are 40 beads in each package, how many beads does Hearty have in all? Give me reasons, before answering the question
Hearty bought a total of 3 + 5 = 8 packages. Therefore, she has a total of 8 x 40 = 320 beads. So the final answer is 320.
