I'll stick with the "O" for apples.
----------
Jill has 3 apples: O O O = 3
Jack has 5 MORE apples than Jill
So Jack has the same amount as Jill PLUS 5
Jack has 8 apples: O O O + O O O O O = 8
How many apples in TOTAL do they have?
Jack has 8 apples and Jill has 3.
8 + 3 = 11
They have 11 apples in total
Jack has 5 more apples than Jill. Jill has 3 apples. How many apples in total do they have?
