Gabby planted a watermelon vine, a peach tree, and two plum trees in the spring. Over the summer, the plants grew and produced fruit. She only got one watermelon to grow, but she got twelve more peaches than that, and three times that number of plums. How many pieces of fruit did Gabby get to pick that summer? Think carefully first, then make a decision:
Gabby's peach tree grew 12 + 1 = 13 peaches. Her plum trees grew 13 * 3 = 39 plums. Thus, Gabby got 1 + 13 + 39 = 53 pieces of fruit to pick. So, the answer is 53.
