Candy Count Comparisons and Concepts

The video tutorial presents a math problem where Alexa has 25 pieces of candy, and her classmate has more. The instructor uses manipulatives to visually represent the candy count and guides students through evaluating different answer choices to determine how many candies Alexa's classmate could have. The correct answer is identified by comparing the numbers to Alexa's count.

How many pieces of candy does Alexa have?

• 25

• 24

• 22

• 20

What is the purpose of using manipulatives in the video?

• To confuse the viewer

• To visually confirm the number of candies

• To add more candies to Alexa's count

• To show a different math problem

Which number of candies is more than Alexa's 25 pieces?

• 20

• 36

• 22

• 24

If Alexa's classmate had 24 candies, how would it compare to Alexa's count?

• It would be double Alexa's

• It would be the same as Alexa's

• It would be more than Alexa's

• It would be less than Alexa's

Why is 36 considered a possible number of candies for Alexa's classmate?

• Because it is less than 25

• Because it is equal to 25

• Because it is more than 25

• Because it is a random number
