Ryan wants to take 5 peanut butter sandwiches to the beach. If each sandwich consists of 3 slices of bread how many slices does Ryan need to make 5 sandwiches?
Thoughts? Step-by-step reasoning:
User
To make 1 sandwich, you need 3 slices so Ryan needs 1 * 3 = 3 slices to make one sandwich. Since it takes 3 slices to make a sandwich, and Ryan wants 5 sandwiches to take to the beach he needs 3 * 5 = 15 slices.
Thus, the answer is 15.
