Mr. Lowe is setting up his room for art class. He has 6 boxes of crayons with 24 crayons each, 3 packages of pencils with 20 pencils each, and 9 packages of paint brushes with 15 brushes each. What is the difference between the total number of crayons and the total number of paint brushes?

so first we need to find the total number of crayons

to do that we're going to multiply 6 by 24 cause each box has 24 crayons

24 × 6 = 144

so the answer of total number of crayons is 144 crayons

next we're going to find the total number of paint brushes

to do that we're going to multiply 9 by 15 cause each package has 15 paint brushes

9 × 15 = 135

so the answer of total number of paint brushes is 135 crayons

finally we're going to calculate the difference

so its 144 crayons subtracted by 135 paint brushes

144 - 135 = 9

so the difference of total number of crayons and total number of paint brushes is 9

hope that helped :))
