Lucas Kirby · Answer 2

8 children

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Mr. Smith had 4 daughters. We also know that for every daughter he had a son. We can represent that as the total number of children = 4 plus 1 (4). The first 4 is for the daughters and the 1 (4) is 1 brother for each daughter.
