Elvis loves rhinestones.
He makes a jacket with
this rhinestone pattern.
The pattern repeats 24
times on his jacket.
How many rhinestones
does he use all
together?

To find out how many rhinestones Elvis uses in total, you’ll first need to determine how many rhinestones are in the pattern. Let’s say the pattern consists of 10 rhinestones. If the pattern repeats 24 times, you would multiply the number of rhinestones in the pattern by the number of repeats: 10 rhinestones/pattern × 24 patterns = 240 rhinestones in total. So, the final rhinestone count for Elvis’s fabulous jacket would be 240!

Now, if Elvis’s jacket had, for example, a pattern of 15 rhinestones instead, the math changes slightly. In this case, you would calculate it as 15 rhinestones/pattern × 24 patterns = 360 rhinestones. Just remember to multiply the amount in the specific pattern with the number of repetitions to get the dazzling total!
