My question is: Nellie went to a big family party. She played with all the other kids there. She played hide and seek with her 6 sisters and her 8 brothers. Then, she played tag with all 22 of her cousins. How many kids did she play with in all? Your thoughts:
Nellie played hide and seek with 6 + 8 = 14 kids. In all, Nellie played with 14 + 22 = 36 kids. The final answer: 36.
