Allie’s dad has asked Allie and her little brothers to help clean up the local parks by collecting items for the green recycle bins. They collect water bottles, soda cans and newspapers all afternoon to fill 10 bags. Allie and her little brothers filled each bag with 275 recyclable items. Each bag holds 275 pieces of recyclable items. How many items were collected in total?
275
10
2,750
27.50
To find the total number of items collected, we need to multiply the number of items in each bag (275) by the number of bags (10).
275 x 10 = 2,750
So, a total of 2,750 items were collected.
