Identify the type of the following word problem: "I have 6 pencils. Manish has two more than me. How many pencils does Manish have?"
A.Comparison addition✓ Correct
B.Comparison subtraction
C.Takeaway addition
D.Takeaway subtraction
Explanation
This is a comparison addition problem because it compares two quantities (my pencils and Manish's pencils) where Manish has 'two more than' me. The solution requires addition (6 + 2 = 8), and the structure involves comparison between two sets. Comparison subtraction would ask 'how many more' (the difference), takeaway addition isn't a standard category, and takeaway subtraction involves removing objects from a set.
