My question is: Elena has 8 lilies and 5 tulips in her garden. Each lily has 6 petals. Each tulip has 3 petals. How many flower petals are in Elena’s garden? Your thoughts:
Elena has 8 * 6 = 48 lily petals. Elena has 5 * 3 = 15 tulip petals. Elena has a total of 48 + 15 = 63 petals. The final answer: 63.
