To check his multiplication, Noah could use an addition equation that sums the amount of water each of the 7 plants needs.
The equation he could use to check his answer is:
14 + 14 + 14 + 14 + 14 + 14 + 14 = 98
This equation shows that he is adding 14 ounces of water for each of the 7 plants, resulting in a total of 98 ounces.
So the correct response is:
14 + 14 + 14 + 14 + 14 + 14 + 14 = 98
