12) In a downtown building, there are 6 floors and the number of rooms on each floor is R. If each room has exactly C chairs, which of the following gives the total number of chairs in the building?

Explanation

There are 6 floors, R rooms per floor, and C chairs per room. If you multiply 6 floors by R rooms/floor, the unit "floors" will cancel out, leaving you with 6R rooms and if you multiply 6R rooms by chairs/room, the unit "rooms" will cancel out, leaving 6RC chairs in the building.
