Type of bead star has 4 bags number of beads 21 square has 7 bags 14 beads circle has 9 bags 16 beads heart has 2 bags 43 beads estamate the total number of each type of bead Amy buys which two types of beads will she have about the same amount of

1 answer

To estimate the total number of beads that Amy buys, we add up the number of beads in each bag for each type of bead:

Star: 4 bags * 21 beads/bag = 84 beads
Square: 7 bags * 14 beads/bag = 98 beads
Circle: 9 bags * 16 beads/bag = 144 beads
Heart: 2 bags * 43 beads/bag = 86 beads

Therefore, Amy will have a total of 84 + 98 + 144 + 86 = 412 beads.

To determine which two types of beads Amy will have about the same amount of, we can compare the totals:

The closest totals are for the Star and Heart beads, with 84 beads and 86 beads respectively. Therefore, Amy will have about the same amount of Star and Heart beads.
