To find out how many fingers there are on 20 hands, we can follow these steps:
-
Determine the number of fingers on one hand: Typically, one hand has 5 fingers.
-
Calculate the total number of fingers for 20 hands:
- We can multiply the number of fingers on one hand by the number of hands: \[ \text{Total fingers} = \text{number of fingers per hand} \times \text{number of hands} \]
- So we substitute: \[ \text{Total fingers} = 5 \text{ fingers/hand} \times 20 \text{ hands} \]
-
Perform the multiplication: \[ 5 \times 20 = 100 \]
Thus, the total number of fingers on 20 hands is 100 fingers.
