If I have 5 pears in one box and 2 pears in another box.
How many pears do I have altogether?

7, or 5

Step-by-step explanation:

If the pears are in separate boxes, then 7

If one box is inside the other box, then 5, as 2 pears would be inside the inner box, and 3 pears would be in the outer box. 5 pears total would be in the outer box (including the ones from the inner box)

step-by-step explanation:

the true statements are:

r = set of real numbers

n = set of natural numbers, 1,2,

w = n u{0} = {0,1,}
