Mr. Collins is constructing a fence around his property. He already has 25 sections up and plans to add 8 sections each Saturday until he is finished. Find the total number of fence sections standing after 15 Saturdays.

Hi!

So, we know the Mr. Collins already has 25 sections. So let's write an equation.

25 + 8s
(s = Saturday)

Now our value for s in this equation is 15. So put in the value..

25 + 8 · 15
25 + 120
145

The answer is 145

Hope this helps! :)
