Can someone help. Write a word problem about equal groups and act it out to solve

HOPE THAT MAY HELP YOU :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Equal groups are illustrations of using the same variable.

A word problem that uses equal group is:  

Christopher traveled a distance of 5 miles yesterday; he traveled a distance of 4 miles earlier today. Calculate the total distance traveled  

The only condition for equal groups is that:  

The units or variable must be the same  

For instance:

Add 5 miles and 4 miles This represents distance

Remove 2 liters from 7 liters --- This represents volume

Add 5 hours and quarter of an hour -- This represents time

And so on.

step-by-step explanation:

10.50 + taxes which added up to 11.50
