Question

Answer 1

It is given in the question that

Ben has a collection of 812 stamps. He gives his brother 345 stamps.

And we have to find how many stamps does Ben have left .

Let x stamps are left.

So we have

`x+345=812`

Subtracting 345 from both sides

`x+345-345 = 812-345`

`x = 467`

Therefore after giving 345 stamps to his brother, 467 stamps are left .
