Robert is a school janitor. Last week, he picked up 379 pieces of trash in the classrooms and 134 pieces of trash around the campus. How many pieces of trash did Robert pick up?

Question

​
pieces of trash

Answer 1

To find out how many pieces of trash Robert picked up in total, you need to add the number of pieces of trash he picked up in the classrooms to the number he picked up around the campus.

So, you calculate:

379 (classrooms) + 134 (campus) = 513

Robert picked up a total of 513 pieces of trash.
