Question

(15 POINTS)

Tyrell has a box of colored pencils. He uses 65 pencils and has 114 pencils left in the box. Write an equation showing how many pencils are in the box before he starts drawing.

p − 65 = 114
p = 114 − 65
65 + p = 114
114 + p = 65

Answer 1

P-65=114
It just makes sense

Answer 2

Answer: p-65=114

Step-by-step explanation: P represents the box of colored pencils, he uses 65, therefore you would subtract the 65 from the total (p), and Tyrell is left with 114 colored pencils.
