Question. The hobby store normally sells 21,122 trading cards per month. In June, the hobby store sold 3,922 more trading cards than normal. If the hobby store sold the regular number of trading cards in July, how many trading cards did the hobby store sell in June and July combined?
Answer. 46166
What step-by-step reasoning justifies that answer?
Reasoning: In June the hobby store sold 21,122 + 3,922 = 25,044 trading cards. Over June and July the store sold 25,044 + 21,122 = 46,166 trading cards.
