Yes thank you for your help
To find out how many tennis balls Lexi now has, you need to calculate the total number of tennis balls in her original cans and the additional cans she bought.
Lexi initially has 2 cans, and each can contains 3 tennis balls. So, the number of tennis balls in the original cans is 2 × 3 = 6.
She then buys 2 more cans, which means she adds another 2 × 3 = 6 tennis balls.
To find the total number of tennis balls Lexi now has, you need to add the number of tennis balls in her original cans to the number of tennis balls in the additional cans. Therefore, she now has 6 + 6 = 12 tennis balls.
