After selling a dozen copies of the daily newspaper, a newsstand had fewer than 75 copies left. How many copies did the newsstand have at the beginning of the day?

if you have less then 75 that could leave 74 and a dozen is 12 so i would do 74+12 but if there are chooses maybe you should add them ur answer is 86
