Add all the numbers together so like this 36+x+12+y+24=??? Try the rest on your own

Answer 2

Answer:

36x + 12y + 24 = T

Step-by-step explanation:

If Sahil has 36 packs of x pencils, then x would equal the number of pencils in each pack. Same thing goes for y. 12 packs of y pencils and y will be the number of crayons in each pack.

36(x) = Total number of pencils.

12(y) = Total number of crayons.

24 = The numbers of erasers which is given.

36x + 12y + 24 = Total numbers of items.
