a)  150 plates

b)  30 plates

c)  180 plates

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

She bought twelve (12) packages of plates for the party in which each package contains 15 plates.

Out of the 12 packages;

10packages are small plates & 2 packages are large plates.

a) The number of small plates she bought = 10 × 15 = 150 plates

b) The number of large plates she bought = 2 × 15 = 30 plates

c) The total number of plates she bought all together is:

= number of small plates bought + = number of large plates bought

= (150 +30) plates

The total number of plates she bought all together = 180 plates
