Answer: The correct equation is r + 4 = 12 and the correct answer is, r = 8

Explanation:

Here r represents the remaining roses she has when she lost 4 flowers,

Thus, the total number of flower she has = r + 4

But, the initial number of roses = 12

Therefore, r + 4 = 12

Which is the required equation for finding the remaining flowers.

Also,


r + 4 = 12


r = 8

Which is the required number of the remaining flowers.

⇒ Second Option is correct.
