Violet chewed 5 times as many pieces of bubble gum in one week as her friend if her friend chewed 12 pieces of bubble gum. how many did violet chew

I'm not sure if I'm going to be right because it doesn't say if it's 5 times more or less

so I would say it's 5 (12) = 60 so I think Violet chewed chewed 60

and if it was asking how many pieces of bubble gum Violet chewed more than her friend it would be 60-12=48
