Answer 1

Gavin have 278 more blocks compare to Avery.

Solution:

Given that Gavin has 1,094 toy building blocks. Avery only has 816 toy building blocks . we have to find how many more blocks Gavin has.

Number of toy building blocks with Gavin = 1094

Number of toy building blocks with Avery = 816

We need to find excess number of building blocks with gavin.

So excess number of building blocks with gavin = Number of toy building blocks with Gavin – Number of toy building blocks with Avery

= 1094 – 816 = 278

Hence Gavin have 278 more blocks compare to Avery.
