Nathan is making blueberry and pineapple kebabs. Each kebab needs the same number of blueberries, b, and the same number of pineapple pieces, p.

a. Nathan wants to check if he has enough of each type of fruit to make 12 kebabs. How can the expression 12b + 12p help him do that?

b. Nathan's friend Linda offers to help him make some of the kebabs. Nathan wants to set aside enough fruit for her to make 3 of the kebabs. How can you rewrite 12b + 12p so that it shows the fruit for Nathan's kebabs and the fruit for Linda's kebabs separately?

Nathan needs 12b + 12p fruits while Linda needs 3b + 3p fruits

An equation is an expression used to show the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Given each kebab needs the same number of blueberries, b, and the same number of pineapple pieces, p.

a) For 12 kebabs:

Number of fruit = 12(b + p) = 12b + 12p

b) For Linda 3 kebab:

Number of fruit = 3(b + p) = 3b + 3p

Nathan needs 12b + 12p fruits while Linda needs 3b + 3p fruits
