Full solution

Q. Maria looked through her Grandma's famous 1010-page recipe book. One page had free recipes, the next nine pages had six recipes each. How many recipes in all did Maria find in her Grandma's recipe book?
  1. Identify Number of Recipes: Identify the number of recipes on each page. According to the problem, one page has free recipes, and the next 99 pages have 66 recipes each.
  2. Calculate Total Recipes on Nine Pages: Calculate the total number of recipes on the nine pages that have six recipes each. This is done by multiplying the number of pages with recipes by the number of recipes per page: 99 pages * 66 recipes/page =54= 54 recipes.
  3. Add Free Page Recipes: Add the number of recipes from the page with free recipes. Since there are no recipes on the free page, we simply add 00 to the total from the previous step: 5454 recipes ++ 00 = 5454 recipes.
  4. Confirm Total Number of Recipes: Confirm that the total number of recipes found in the recipe book is the sum of the recipes from all the pages. Since we have already calculated this in the previous steps, we can conclude that Maria found 5454 recipes in her Grandma's recipe book.
