(i) How many snowballs did Alfredo make?
Ans: There are 3 pictures in front of Alfredo. 1 snowflake represents 4 snowballs made.
So, Alfredo made 3x4 = 12 snowballs.

(ii) How many snowballs did Aaron make?
Ans: There are 2 pictures in front of Aaron. 1 snowflake represents 4 snowballs made.
So, Aaron made 2x4 = 8 snowballs. 

(iii) Name two people who made the same number of snowballs.
Ans: Anna and Bailey made the same number of snowballs.
We can simply look at the number of snowflakes in front of each name and see that Anna and Bailey have same number of snowflakes drawn in front of their names.
There are 7 snowflakes which means 7x4 = 28. So, Anna and Bailey, both of them, made 28 snowballs each.

(iv) How many more snowballs did Bailey make than Adeline?
Ans: Bailey made 28 snowballs where as Adeline made 20 snowballs (5x4 = 20)
28- 20 = 8
Bailey made 8 more snowballs than Adeline. 

(v) How many more snowballs did Alexander make than Adora?
Ans: Alexander : 8 x 4 = 32 snowballs
Adora: 4 x 4 = 16
32- 16 = 16
Alexander made 16 more snowballs than Adora.
