How many bookmarks were longer than 7 inches
___ bookmarks

Answer 1

To find out how many bookmarks are longer than 7 inches, we can look at the lengths listed:

- Length of 8 inches: 4 bookmarks
- Length of 9 inches: 3 bookmarks

Now, we can add these together:

4 (for the 8-inch bookmarks) + 3 (for the 9-inch bookmarks) = 7 bookmarks

So, there are **7 bookmarks** that are longer than 7 inches.
