1 answer

To find the total number of vegetables that Andrew picked, we need to calculate the number of each type of vegetable he picked and then sum them up.

  1. Carrots:

    • He put 10 carrots into each of 3 bags.
    • Total carrots = 10 carrots/bag × 3 bags = 30 carrots
  2. Tomatoes:

    • He put 8 tomatoes into each of 4 bags.
    • Total tomatoes = 8 tomatoes/bag × 4 bags = 32 tomatoes
  3. Turnips:

    • He put 6 turnips into each of 5 bags.
    • Total turnips = 6 turnips/bag × 5 bags = 30 turnips

Now, let's add all the vegetables together:

\[ Total\ vegetables = Total\ carrots + Total\ tomatoes + Total\ turnips \]

\[ Total\ vegetables = 30 + 32 + 30 = 92 \]

Thus, Andrew picked a total of 92 vegetables.
