Question

Nancy has 100 candy bars. She ate 47 of them in one day. Then she gave 12 of them to her friend David . How much does she have now?

Answer 1

Since Nancy starts with 100 candy bars and eats 47, you want to subtract those two numbers. You then want to subtract 12 from the sum because she gave 12 to David.

100 - 47 - 12

53 -12

Nancy has 41 candy bars

Hope this helps ;)

Answer 2

41 Candy Bars

Explanation:

She first has 100 candy bars. If she ate 47, she will have 53. If she gives away 12 after, she would have 41.
