Is this a trick question? mr. buckham teaches vocabulary to 27 fourth grade students. there are 63 new vocabulary words. each student rights one vocabulary and definition on an index card. does he have enough index cards for all students ?

Yes, because there are many unnecessary details in this question to throw you off. All you need to know is how many students there are and how many will each student use. Each student will 1, and there are 27 students. Mr. Buckham needs 27 index cards.
