Answer:
24 birds.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that Emily and her friends went to the park. they saw 15 robins and 9 blue jays. We are asked to find the number of birds and explain how you decided what number sentence to write.
Since there are 15 robins and 9 blue jays, so we can get total number of birds by adding 15 to 9.
[tex]15+9=24[/tex]
Since we are asked to find total number of birds, so we can find total birds by addition only.
Therefore, Emily and her friends saw 24 birds.
