To find out how many apples Jim and Shey bought in total, we can break it down into steps.

  1. Calculate the number of apples Jim bought:

    • Jim initially bought 4 bags of apples and then decided to buy 2 more bags.
    • Total number of bags Jim bought = 4 + 2 = 6 bags.
    • Each bag contains 50 apples, so the total number of apples Jim bought = 6 bags × 50 apples/bag = 300 apples.
  2. Calculate the number of apples Shey bought:

    • Shey bought 6 bags of apples.
    • Total number of apples Shey bought = 6 bags × 50 apples/bag = 300 apples.
  3. Calculate the total number of apples they bought together:

    • Total apples = Apples bought by Jim + Apples bought by Shey = 300 apples + 300 apples = 600 apples.

Thus, Jim and Shey bought a total of 600 apples.
