Bobby saw 2 Lions at the zoo. He saw 4 times as many elephants as the Lions. He also saw half as many giraffes as elephant. How many animals did he see in all?

Answer :

Answer:

Bobby saw 11 animals in total

Step-by-step explanation:

we will represent the relationships that give us

L = Lions

E = Elefaphants

G = Giraffes

A = Animals

L = 2

E = 4 * L

G = 1/2 * L

A = L + E + G

in the second and third equations we replace L with its value (2)

E = 4 * L

E = 4 *2

E = 8

G = 1/2 * L

G = 1/2 * 2

G = 1

now in the last equation we replace the values ​​of L, E and G

A = L + E + G

A = 2 + 8 + 1

A = 11
