1 answer

To find out how many outfits Sophia needs for one week, we can calculate the total number of outfits she changes into over the week.

  1. Calculate outfits for weekdays (Monday to Friday):

    • She changes clothes 4 times per day.
    • For 5 weekdays, the total is: \[ 4 \text{ changes/day} \times 5 \text{ days} = 20 \text{ changes} \]
  2. Calculate outfits for Saturday:

    • She changes clothes 2 times on Saturday.
  3. Calculate outfits for Sunday:

    • She changes clothes 3 times on Sunday.
  4. Now, add up all the changes over the week: \[ \text{Total changes} = \text{Weekdays} + \text{Saturday} + \text{Sunday} \] \[ \text{Total changes} = 20 + 2 + 3 = 25 \]

Thus, Sophia needs a total of 25 outfits for one week.
