Suppose dasha has 217 grams of sand in the bucket and 146 grams of shells. What is the mass of the sand and the shells? Write an equation to solve.
217 + 146 = t
Well, let's use our mathematical skills to solve this sand and shell mystery. We know that Dasha has 217 grams of sand and 146 grams of shells. So to find the total mass of the sand and shells, we can set up the equation:
Total mass = Mass of sand + Mass of shells
Let's assign variables to make it more fun:
Let's call the total mass T, the mass of sand S, and the mass of shells H. Our equation becomes:
T = S + H
Now we can substitute the values we have:
T = 217 grams + 146 grams
Add them up and your answer will reveal the total mass of the sand and shells. Good luck!
To find the mass of the sand and the shells, we need to add the mass of the sand and the mass of the shells.
Let's represent the mass of sand as S, and the mass of shells as Sh.
The equation to solve would be:
Mass of sand and shells (S+Sh) = Mass of sand (S) + Mass of shells (Sh)
Therefore,
Mass of sand and shells = 217 grams + 146 grams
Now we can solve for the total mass of sand and shells.
To find the mass of the sand and shells, we need to add the mass of the sand (217 grams) to the mass of the shells (146 grams).
The equation to solve for the mass of the sand and shells is:
Mass of sand + Mass of shells = Mass of sand and shells
Using the given values, the equation becomes:
217 grams + 146 grams = Mass of sand and shells
Now, we can solve the equation to find the answer:
217 grams + 146 grams = 363 grams
Therefore, the mass of the sand and shells is 363 grams.
