Multiple Select

What operation will solve this problem?

• + (Will adding 4 cartons + 1/4 carton = people?)

• - (Are we subtracting a 1/4 away from 4 cartons?

• X (are we finding "part of a whole" or repeatedly adding?)

• $\div$ (Are we taking a TOTAL and equally dividing? )

Multiple Choice

Which are we trying to solve?
