Question

• A. $155$
• B. $164$
• C. $102$
• D. $194$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $164$

Number of cartons of shoes = 41
Number of pairs of shoes in each carton = 4

To calculate the total number of pairs of shoes in 41 cartons, multiply 41 by 4.

$\text{Let's multiply}41\times 4\text{through a tape}$ $\text{diagram, wherein we add}41$
$\text{four times in the following manner}$:


∴ $41\times 4=164$

Hence, there are 164 pairs of shoes in 4 cartons.
