1 rabbit saw 6 elephants while going to the river. Every elephant saw 2 monkeys going towards the river. Every monkey holds 1 parrot in their hands. How many animals are going towards the river?

1 + 6 + 12 + 12 = ?

Hmmm. Do we know that all the elephants are going to the river?

what’s the answer?

1+2+2x2=7

To find the total number of animals going towards the river, we'll break down the information given step by step:

1 rabbit saw 6 elephants while going to the river.

So, there is 1 rabbit.

Every elephant saw 2 monkeys going towards the river.

Since there are 6 elephants, and each elephant saw 2 monkeys, we have a total of 6 multiplied by 2, which equals 12 monkeys.

Every monkey holds 1 parrot in their hands.

Since there are 12 monkeys, and each monkey holds 1 parrot, we have a total of 12 parrots.

Now, to find the total number of animals going towards the river, we add up the number of each animal:

1 rabbit + 6 elephants + 12 monkeys + 12 parrots = 31 animals.

Therefore, there are 31 animals going towards the river.
