Look back at the plans these students used to solve the word problem below. Who found a correct solution?

EK BAKI

The entire school, 250 students, went to the soap box derby.

The Math Club went in 2 vans, and each van held 6 students.

How many students from the Math Club went to the soap box

derby?

Paul added vans to students. Eva multiplied students by vans

Since 2+ 6 + 8, eight Math Club Since 6x2 = 12, twelve Math Club

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

The entire school, 250 students, went to the soap box derby.2 vans went to soap box derby and each van held 6 students.

To find the total number of students from the Math Club who went to the soap box derby, we need to add the number of students in each van, the number of times equal to the number of vans.

i.e. by adding 6 (i.e. number of students in each van) 2 (number of vans )number of times, we can get the number of students from Math Club who went to the soap box derby.

Number of Math Club students who went to the soap box derby = 6 + 6 = 12

OR

Simply, multiply number of students in each van with the number of vans .

6 2 = 12

Therefore, Eva is correct about the calculations.
