Your turn now.
I'll be glad to check your answer.
Idk so please tell me ?
To find the total number of string, brass, and reed players in the orchestra, we need to calculate the number of musicians in each section separately and then add them together.
First, let's find the number of string players:
There are 4 rows of string players and 4 musicians in each row.
So, the total number of string players is 4 rows × 4 musicians = 16 string players.
Next, let's find the number of brass and reed players:
There are 5 rows of brass and reed players and 3 musicians in each row.
So, the total number of brass and reed players is 5 rows × 3 musicians = 15 brass and reed players.
Now, let's add the number of string, brass, and reed players together:
16 string players + 15 brass and reed players = 31 players in total.
Therefore, there are 31 string, brass, and reed players in the orchestra.
