Cadets are marching in a parade. There are 5 cadets in a row. What is the rule which gives the number of cadets, given the number of rows? (Use n for the number of rows)

Solution:

We will apply the multiplication rule that gives the number of cadets, given in the number of rows

Given that the number of cadets in a row = 5

Let the number of rows be n.

The total number of cadets = Number of cadets in a row × Number of rows.

For n = 1 

5 × 1 = 5

For n = 2

5 × 2 = 10

For n = 3

5 × 3 = 15

Hence, total number of cadets = 5 × n = 5n
