problem_activity: Problem 1
Katia and Gerard are stocking shelves at the grocery store. Katia stocks 3 shelves with 7 boxes of cereal on each shelf. Gerard stocks 7 shelves with 3 boxes of cereal on each shelf.
Katia says they put the same number of cereal boxes on each shelf. Gerard says they didn’t, since they stocked a different number of boxes on each of a different number of shelves. Who do you agree with, Katia or Gerard? Explain.
