Respuesta :

Answer:

C 130

Step-by-step explanation:

She wants twice as many prizes as students.  how many students are there? 109, so double that to get 218.  That's how many prizes she wants

Currently there are 88, so what do you have to add to 88 to get 218?  the easy way to do this is to find the difference between 218 and 88, so subtract them.

218 - 88 = 130

So choice C
