Q: Vaishali has 4 hats, each with three stripes. She also has three hats with four stripes each, six hats with no stripes, and another two hats with 5 stripes each. What is the combined total number of stripes Vaishali has on all of her hats?
A: 34
Explain how we arrive at this answer:
Explanation: Four hats, each with three stripes, is 4 * 3 = 12 stripes. Three hats with four stripes each is 3 * 4 = 12 stripes. Six hats with no stripes is 6 * 0 = 0 stripes. And two hats with 5 stripes each is 2 * 5 = 10 stripes. The combined total number of stripes Vaishali has on all of her hats is 12 + 12 + 0 + 10 = 34 stripes.
