Can someone please help me?

Charlotte and Amy are picking strawberries. If Charlotte picks 6 dozen dozen strawberries, and Amy picks a half-dozen dozen strawberries, which hedgehog will pick the larger crop of strawberries? How many did they pick?

Thank you.

6 dozen dozen

Do you mean 6 * 12 * 12?

half-dozen dozen
6 * 12?

Hedgehog?

To determine which hedgehog picked the larger crop of strawberries, we need to compare the number of strawberries picked by each hedgehog.

Let's start by calculating the number of strawberries picked by each hedgehog.

1. Charlotte:
If Charlotte picks 6 dozen dozen strawberries, a dozen dozen is equal to 12 dozen strawberries.
So, 6 dozen dozen strawberries would be equal to 6 * 12 dozen strawberries.
6 * 12 dozen strawberries = 72 dozen strawberries.

2. Amy:
If Amy picks a half-dozen dozen strawberries, a half-dozen is equal to 6/2 = 3 dozen strawberries.
So, a half-dozen dozen strawberries would be equal to 3 * 12 dozen strawberries.
3 * 12 dozen strawberries = 36 dozen strawberries.

Now, let's compare the number of strawberries picked by each hedgehog:
- Charlotte picked 72 dozen strawberries.
- Amy picked 36 dozen strawberries.

Since 72 dozen strawberries is greater than 36 dozen strawberries, Charlotte picked the larger crop of strawberries.

Therefore, Charlotte picked 72 dozen strawberries.

Of course, I'd be happy to help you!

To determine which hedgehog picked the larger crop of strawberries and how many they picked, we need to compare the quantities picked by Charlotte and Amy.

First, let's convert the quantities of strawberries they picked into a more manageable form. A dozen is equal to 12, so we can simplify the problem by multiplying the dozens by 12.

Let's start with Charlotte. If Charlotte picked 6 dozen dozen strawberries, we can calculate the total number by multiplying 6 by 12.

6 dozen dozen strawberries = 6 x 12 x 12 = 864 strawberries.

Now, let's move on to Amy. If Amy picked a half-dozen dozen strawberries, we need to calculate the total number of strawberries by multiplying 0.5 (since it's half a dozen) by 12.

Half-dozen dozen strawberries = 0.5 x 12 x 12 = 72 strawberries.

Comparing the quantities, we can see that Charlotte picked a larger crop of strawberries since she picked 864 strawberries compared to Amy's 72 strawberries.

Therefore, Charlotte picked the larger crop of strawberries, picking 864 strawberries, while Amy picked 72 strawberries.
