From the data provided, both individual collectors had the following;

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Alex}=36+95+115 \\ \text{Alex}=246 \end{gathered}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Erika}=82+108+28 \\ \text{Erika}=218 \end{gathered}[/tex]

ANSWER:

Part A:

(1) Alex collected more shells

(2) She collected a total of 246 shells

(3) That is 28 more than Erika collected.
